Wool fibers, sourced from animals such as merino sheep, alpaca, camel, angora rabbits, and vicuna, offer numerous remarkable qualities. Wool is notably breathable, efficiently absorbing and releasing moisture to maintain ideal comfort. As a fully biodegradable fiber, wool naturally decomposes in the earth, enriching soil by returning valuable nutrients. Its distinctive structure provides inherent flame resistance, making wool highly valued for use in public settings, such as hotels and hospitals. Additionally, because wool-bearing animals are typically shorn once per year, wool is easily renewable and can be sustainably produced through organic farming methods.

Organic wool is chemical-free throughout the entire production process, beginning with sheep that graze on pesticide- and fertilizer-free pastures. This wool is cleaned using eco-friendly, biodegradable agents instead of conventional dyes or chlorine-based substances, and then processed, carded, and spun in organic mills. By choosing organic wool, you help prevent dangerous chemicals from contaminating homes, groundwater, food sources, and the wider ecosystem, thus safeguarding the health of farmworkers and their communities. Organic wool production also fosters sustainability by providing farmers with additional income opportunities alongside meat or dairy farming. Furthermore, wool is recognized as one of the most frequently recycled and repurposed fibers globally. Many organic wool products are certified under the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), a trusted international certification for organic fibers.
