Country Laine is part of the New Zealand owned and operated Textile Creations Limited providing quality knitwear, knitted and designed within their manufacturing operation in Auckland. Specialising in Merino garments, fashion products, throws and blankets.
Gary Cremer and Jo Barker have been involved in the Textile Industry all their lives and have a natural understanding of what New Zealanders require from garments, and design with this is mind. Their team at their manufacturing facility in Auckland lovingly craft these garments so that their fellow New Zealanders can enjoy the garments for many years to come.
Quality is foremost in our business ethic and this can be seen in the quality of the Merino sourced, quality control with the manufacturing and finishing process, and the hands on approach of both Gary and Jo.
We are acutely aware of our responsibility as business owners to minimise our impact on the environment and have a positive impact on the community. Within Textile Creations Ltd, re-use and recycling is at the heart of the company. Along with the usual cardboard, plastics and metal recycling we also give off cuts of fabric and thread to Textile Products who re-purposes them into installation and removal blankets.
We also have a variety of charities that we support with donations of clothing, blankets, beanies, scarves and fabrics.
