Thermo-regulation
Wool reacts to your body
temperature and keeps you
cool in hot weather and warm
in cool weather
Water resistance
Outer layer of wool has a
protective covering due to ,
which it does not absorb
liquids quickly making it
water and stain resistant
Breathable
Wool is breathable, allowing
air to circulate and moisture
to escape, which helps
regulate body temperature.
Soft
Wool fibers are soft in touch
and the worsted texture of
the yarns gives it pillowy
comfort and inviting appeal.
Moisture wicking
Wool can absorb moisture
(up to 30% of its weight)
without feeling wet. It wicks
moisture away from the
body, keeping the wearer dry
and comfortable.
Odor free
Wool has natural
antimicrobial properties that
reduce the growth of odor-
causing bacteria. This makes
wool garments less likely to
retain odors.
Stretchable
Wool fibers are naturally
elastic, allowing them to
stretch and return to their
original shape. This property
helps wool garments resist
wrinkling and retain their
shape.
Easy clean
Outer layer of wool has a
protective covering due to
which it does not absorb
liquids quickly making it
water and stain resistant
Flame resistant
Wool is naturally flame-
resistant. It does not ignite
easily and tends to self-
extinguish, making it a
safer choice for clothing and
furnishings.
Craft and community
The ancient craft of weaving wool has been treasured by humanity for
millennia and is honored by UNESCO as one of the '50 most valuable crafts
for human evolution.'
Those who practice this craft safeguard our cultural
heritage and contribute to cultural sustainability,
which is just as crucial
as ecological sustainability.
Creating luxurious, soft wool fabrics requires countless hours and
skilled
hands. The quality of grass fed to the sheep by pastoralists plays a vital role in
the softness of the wool.
Artisans then transform the wool into modern art
pieces, cosy furnishings, or high-performance athletic apparel.

grazing lands and helping
reversing climate change
Biodegradable
Wool is a renewable
and biodegradable resource,
