We think wool is great. But that’s our personal opinion. So let us tell you why we think it is a great fabric and you can decide for yourself…
1
Durable
Wool retains its composition for longer than synthetic fibers. While synthetic fibres tend to compress over time, wool continually springs back into shape, retaining up to 95% of its thickness throughout years of use.2
Easy care
Wool fabrics are easy to clean because they have a natural protective coating which makes wool products more resistant to staining. Because of its absorbent fibres wool doesn't collect much static. Static attracts lint, dirt, and dust.3
Natural insulator
Wool buffers the extreme cold or hot air on the outside, keeping your body in that optimal temperature zone for comfort and rest.4
Non-allergenic
Wool is almost entirely non-allergenic. Although some people do have a rare natural allergy, most people's allergy to wool is a reaction to the many harsh and toxic chemicals that go into the treatment of the fabric.5
Sustainable
Wool is a protein fibre formed in the skin of sheep, and is thus 100% natural, not man-made. It also represents a form of carbon storage: about 50% of the weight of wool is pure organic carbon.6
Breathable
Wool breathes well so it releases heat more easily and is also less likely to hold smells.7
Biodegradable
Wool is 100% biodegradable. When a natural wool fibre is disposed of in soil, it takes a very short time to break down and decompose.8
