Montloup's family

Montloup is above all a family story. One that grows as we grow. It's the kind of family we've chosen and will continue to choose. A story of association, of planets aligning, of the desire to bring an industry back to life.

Montloup is a fabric supplier specializing in the creation and design of organic and eco-friendly fabrics, knitted in Montreal (Quebec, Canada) with respect for the environment. The company is committed to advancing the research and development of fabrics made in Canada, with ecology at the heart of its priorities.

Our partners

We're a small team who believe in the power of association!

Our strength lies in our partnerships with local players chosen for their experience and high quality standards. From fiber to dyeing, each stage is meticulously controlled to offer the best possible product.

Montloup would be nothing without this partnership! In fact, our offices have been in the factory since May 2023. Above all, Montloup would not have been possible without the support of Joe Leb, the company's president, who has been at the helm since 1967. Lila often refers to him as her mentor, and rightly so, since he taught her so much about fabric manufacturing.

Dyeing and finishing

Dyeing and finishing are handled by various partners in Montreal (Madison Avenue Studio) and Berthierville (Coraltex), as well as in Ontario (CTS).

A key step in fabric production, finishing involves cleaning the fabrics, controlling their thickness and width. It is also at this stage that the fabrics are dyed.

Network and community

Montloup, through Lila, is also very present in the Montreal fashion ecosystem. Lila is part of "la communauté de pratique mode textile et habillement" of "Concertation Montréal" and is a member of Mmode. Montloup also supports the Fibershed Québec initiative. Internationally, Montloup is a member of Textile exchange.
