Welcome to FC2015

Flax Canada 2015 Phase II (FC2015) is a unique initiative established to identify and utilize value-added opportunities for flax.

FC2015 Inc. aims to enhance the value of flax by making it an important component in the preventative approach to human and animal health. In addition, FC2015 Inc. will support the value-added sector with a strategy for total utilization of flax for food, feed, fibre, health, and industrial uses – truly flax for all reasons!

This national initiative has a strategy to improve Canadian health, wellness and environmental sustainability, and has positioned flax as one of the main drivers of the Canadian bio-economy.

The potential social, economic, and ecological benefits of FC2015’s strategic plan include:
  • Strengthened vitality and quality of life in rural communities
  • Increased economic options and profitability for producers
  • More value-added, locally-based processing industries
  • Increased availability of high-quality flax products in the marketplace
  • Improved pest management
  • Greater biological and crop diversity in agro-ecosystems
  • Enhanced environmental quality - improved air, water and soil quality
  • Health benefits associated with improved nutrition and environment
