Sorghum straw

One of the oldest cultivated cereals, sorghum is distinguished by its robust stems and flower spikes. Its natural fibers, resistant to crushing and humidity , make it the ideal material for the manufacture of traditional brooms. Sorghum straw therefore offers quick and efficient sweeping on all types of surfaces .

Hornbeam wood

Hornbeam wood is one of the densest and hardest of the local species. Highly resistant to wear and impact , it is ideal for making everyday objects subject to heavy use. Its fine, regular grain and light, even color give it a natural elegance.

The steps in making a sorghum straw broom:

  1. Cultivation and drying: The sorghum is cultivated with care, then the straw dries naturally for several months in the fields.
  2. Humidification: The straw is slightly re-humidified to make it more flexible and easier to work with.
  3. Construction of the broom core: Thanks to the sections of sorghum straw which reinforce the top of the broom and give the broom its volume and shape.
  4. Broom cover: Several layers of straw are wrapped around the core using wire, using a machine called a “mounter”.
  5. Final sewing of the broom: The broom is finally sewn using a “broom press”, thus ensuring a neat and durable finish.
