    Care instructions

    • Machine wash on delicate in cool/lukewarm water (up to 70°C)
    • Use wool soap with lanolin (e.g., Eucalan)
    • Air dry or tumble with no heat
    • Remove from dryer at about 85% dry
    • Spot clean with warm water with Eucalan or disinfecting soap
    • Avoid bleach, high heat, and direct sunlight

    Wool is naturally antimicrobial and doesn’t require frequent washing. To freshen, hang outside in moist air (out of direct sunlight); the wool will release moisture and self‑refresh.

    FAQ

    What is sheep wool fabric?

    Our fabric is made from 100% shorn sheep wool, knitted into a nylon grid for strength and shape retention, then stabilized with a medical‑grade acrylic compound for washability. This ensures the body lies on pure wool fibre — not hide — while meeting IPAC guidelines.

    Why a nylon grid?

    • Prevents fraying
    • Maintains shape better than cotton or wool alone
    • Similar to nylon reinforcement in wool socks
    • Renewable and sustainable

    Why an acrylic stabilizer?

    • Developed in Germany for high‑standard washability
    • Used safely for decades with no reported allergies
    • Allows full machine washability to 70°C
    • Ensures long‑term durability

    How does wool help with pressure injuries?

    Wool distributes weight evenly, reduces pressure points, and stabilizes temperature — key factors in preventing ulcers and supporting healing.

    Is wool good for night sweats?

    Yes. Wool absorbs moisture without feeling wet and releases it into the air, keeping sleepers dry — especially helpful for menopausal night sweats.

    Is this the same as sheepskin?

    No.

    • Sheepskin = hide + wool attached
    • Sheep wool fabric = shorn wool fibre knitted into a backing
      Our products use sheep wool fabric, making them washable, breathable, and humane.

    Why Wool?

    Wool is one of nature’s most advanced performance fibres, breathable, durable, and exceptionally comfortable. It creates a stable, balanced sleep environment that works for all types of sleepers, all year round.

    Temperature Regulation

    Wool naturally keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer. It adapts to your body temperature, making it ideal for hot sleepers, cold sleepers, and couples with different comfort needs.

    Moisture Management

    Wool absorbs 30–40% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp. It pulls humidity away from the skin and releases it into the air, keeping bedding dry, fresh, and comfortable through the night.

    Naturally Clean

    Wool is naturally antimicrobial and antibacterial. It resists odour, mildew, and bacteria, staying fresher longer and requiring less washing than synthetic bedding.

    Pressure‑Soft Comfort

    Wool fibres gently cushion the body, reducing pressure points and helping muscles relax. This creates a softer, more forgiving sleep surface that supports deeper rest.

    Breathable & Non‑Clammy

    Unlike foam or polyester, wool never traps heat or moisture. It stays breathable and comfortable, preventing the “hot and sticky” feeling common with synthetic bedding.

    Renewable & Sustainable

    Wool is a renewable fibre shorn from sheep annually. It’s biodegradable, long‑lasting, and produced with far less environmental impact than synthetic materials.

    Humane Alternative to Sheepskin

    Our products use sheep wool fabric, not sheepskin.

    • Sheepskin = hide + wool
    • Sheep wool fabric = shorn wool fibre knitted into a backing

    This makes our products washable, breathable, and humane, the sheep keep their hide, and the wool grows back naturally.

    Medical / Therapeutic Use • Pressure Relief • Moisture Control • Clinically‑Aligned Care

    The Sheep Wool Wound Care Heel Package is designed for individuals, caregivers, and clinicians who need targeted, natural protection for the heel,  one of the most vulnerable pressure points on the body.

      100% Sheep's Wool & Machine Washable

    • save planet

      Renewable & Sustainable
    • 100% Natural
    • Biodegradable
    • Naturally Breathable
    • Wrinkle Resistant
    • 100% Renewable
    100% Natural

    Wool is a completely natural fiber, produced year-round by over 68 million sheep in Australia. These sheep thrive on a simple diet of grass, water, fresh air, and sunshine.

    Biodegradable

    Once wool fibers are discarded, they naturally break down in soil within a few years, gradually returning beneficial nutrients to the ground.

    Naturally Breathable

    Merino wool is highly breathable, with fibers that can absorb significant amounts of moisture vapor and release it into the air through evaporation.

    Wrinkle Resistant

    On a microscopic scale, each Merino wool fiber acts like a tiny spring, bouncing back to its original shape after being bent. This natural elasticity helps Merino garments resist wrinkling.

    100% Renewable

    Australian sheep grow a new fleece annually, making wool a fully renewable natural fiber.
