We carefully choose our wool and it is as pure as possible without chemicals, dyes, polymers, or toxins and should be suitable for multiple chemical sensitivity sufferers or those who have allergies.

We take our wool from a Bulgarian mill, where the raw wool has been washed with Foryl-LN, a biodegradable and free of APEO washing agent, produced by Pulcra Chemicals GmbH and approved by Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) - Version 4.0. Our wool has not been bleached, carbonized or dyed. It is granted authorization according to Oeko-Tex Standard 100 for meeting the human-ecological requirements of the standard precisely established for baby products.

BENEFITS OF NATURAL WOOL:

  • Dust mites don't like wool. They prefer hot humid environments that are more common in synthetic or down products. Dust mites are the major cause of allergy and asthma suffering.
  • Wool is fire resistant. That's why fire fighters wear wool uniforms and natural bedding manufacturers use wool in their products to meet fire codes.
  • You can wear wool from the coldest temperatures up to 80+ degrees and be comfortable.
  • Water Repellent.
  • Wool is an excellent insulator and has one of the highest insulation to weight ratios of any natural or man-made fiber.
  • Wool fibers have a natural water wicking property that prevents moisture from being retained in the fabric. Wool also has natural anti-microbial properties because bacteria tend to be attracted to smooth positively charged surfaces like those of synthetic fibres rather than the scaly, neutrally charged surface of the wool fibre.
  • Wool diminishes Body Odor. Most synthetic fibers actually increase body odor because they create a breeding ground for bacteria.
