Wool carpet is ideal for allergy and asthma suffers as
it does not promote the growth of bacteria, mould and
mildew. This reduces the likelihood of spores, mycotoxins
and volati le organic compounds from developing in
the home, helping to prevent allergies and respiratory
problems. Wool fibre also deters the growth of dustmites
– the most common single cause of asthma.

Wool carpet is a very practical option to clean and

Wool is a natural hygroscopic insulator. This means that
wool can naturally absorb up to 30% - 40% of its own
weight in moisture without becoming wet to touch,
thereby reducing the dampness in the air and making
your home a drier and healthier place to live. In cold,
damp conditions (high relative humidity) moisture is
absorbed by wool and heat is given off. In warm dry
conditions, moisture is released by wool, resulting in a
cooling effect. How well your carpet insulates largely
depends on how much air it can trap. Because of wool’s
natural inbuilt crimp, air is retained in mill ions of tiny
pockets which provide an insulation effect, thus creating
a comfortable environment for you and your family.

The impact and control of noise is becoming more
important as our lives get busier. Most of us want our
homes to be a quiet retreat away from the world that
exists outside. The mass wool fibres in any given area
of carpet have a range of lengths, diameters, crimp and
spirality. This gives wool carpets their ability to absorb
sounds over a wide range of frequencies.

An alluring carpet fibre to meet your needs.
The natural beauty of wool stems
from the complexity of the f ibre
itself, evolved to protect sheep, no
matter what the conditions. That’s
why we wear wool, snuggle under
woo l len b lankets , i n su la te our
homes with wool and enjoy l iving
on wool carpet.
When it comes to carpet, wool has
a lways set the highest standard
for insulating qual ity and natural
beauty.

100% wool carpet has natural protection from the
buildup of static electricity. Because of wool’s
unique moisture retention properties it is less
prone to building up static electrical charge. This
means a wool carpet does not require a chemical
treatment to suppress static build up.

Indoor environment quality ( IEQ) refers to the quality
of the air and environment inside buildings, based on
pollutant concentrations and conditions. Wool Research
Organisation of New Zealand (WRONZ) studies have shown
that wool carpet can remove Volatile Organic Compounds
(VOCs) from the air and may continue to purify indoor air
for up to 30 years.
F I R E R E S I S T A N C E
Wool carpets have amongst the lowest propensity for
f lame spread and produce much lower levels of smoke
when compared to synthetic carpet fibres. This is due to
the unique chemical structure of amino acids which make
wool naturally flame resistant.
In experiments conducted by the WRONZ, the surface pile
of the wool carpet formed a thick, foam like, charred layer
which effectively protected the lower pile, backing and
underlay from combustion.
