Merino wool only from animals where their welfare is maintained

Mulesing is a no-go for us.

We pay close attention to where our Merino wool comes from – only accepting wool where the animals’ welfare is maintained. We absolutely condemn cruel mulesing, which is a painful procedure carried out in the animal’s abdomen to stop insects from nesting. This process is still carried out, for example, in Australia.

The Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) strictly forbids mulesing practices. Additionally, it requires animal welfare and responsible farming practices. That´s why we have now committed ourselves to use RWS-certified wool for our products. Our goal is obtaining 100% RWS-certified wool by 2025.
