Here are some reasons to choose wool blankets.

• Wool is antibacterial and resistant to dust mites: wool has natural antibacterial properties and is resistant to dust mites, making it a healthier choice for bedding.
• Wool is a natural insulator.  Wool fibres contain tiny air pockets, which trap the heat providing natural insulation.  Wool blankets have been used for centuries to provide warmth.
• It’s breathable and draws moisture away from the body creating a healthy sleep environment.
• It absorbs harmful pollutants from the air and does not re-emit them.
• It’s durable and resilient and, when cared for properly, will last longer than synthetic blankets.
• Wool is anti-static:  Wool blankets generate very little static electricity, which helps keep dirt and dust at bay, keeping your blankets cleaner for longer.
• Wool is easy to clean.  The surface of a wool blanket consists of microscopic fibres, like overlapping scales, which means dirt sits on the top and can be easily removed with a good shake.
• It doesn’t retain odours.  Unlike synthetic blankets, wool doesn’t retain odours, and dirt remains on its surface, so it doesn’t need to be washed as often.  It should be washed at a lower temperature, which has a lower environmental impact.
• Wool is renewable and recyclable.  Sheep produce a new fleece annually.  Wool blankets can be recycled, giving them a second life.
