About Woad-inc™
Woad-inc is the trading name of a Norfolk farmer who has diversified into natural indigo pigment extraction following five years growing woad for the MAFF-LINK (INDINK) and Spindigo projects. Dr David Hill's 'A Journey into the Blue' article on www.bris.ac.uk/researchreview/2005/1119522957 gives a very clear account of his quest for the re-introduction of natural dye pigments which initiated these two research projects.
Initially involved in growing several alternative crops, woad is the one that has now developed into a full-time business for us. A range of wares dyed with natural indigo pigment from woad grown and processed in Norfolk is being developed and an initial collection listed on our product page.
We aim to combine best quality materials with our blue woad dye to provide superior, contemporary homewares and clothing, so we shall have a modern slant on a traditional product. At present our products are only available by mail order by sending in our order form (pdf), and at events.
