Organic 100% Wool Wadding - Batting.
This Organic wool is not treated with any chemicals and is 100% Natural.
Wool is superior to all other fibres in its ability to handle body moisture in
both warm and cool environments. The porosity of the cells in the outer layers
of wool fibre allows them to quickly and efficiently absorb and evaporate
moisture. The fibres can absorb up to 30% of their own weight in moisture - ten
times as much as any synthetic fibre - without feeling damp or clammy. The
porous structure also explains why wool is such a good thermal insulator, not
to mention the mesh of the fibres, which creates millions of air pockets that
further help to regulate temperature and humidity. Wool is a naturally strong
fibre.
Why Choose Wool?
Some of the many reasons people choose wool over synthetic alternatives:
- Ultra light Insulator – Wool is an excellent insulator and has one of the
highest insulation to weight ratios of any natural or man-made fibre.
- Environmentally Sustainable
- Biodegradable, sustainable, renewable material
