Natural
Wool is a natural product that is shorn annually. It is naturally anti-microbial, wicks moisture, and regulates temperature - keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.
Why Wool?
Wool has been used by humans for thousand of years. It is a natural fiber that is sustainable, durable, and full of beneficial health properties. Wool has been shown to naturally regulate heart rate, keeping it low for a deeper sleep. It also purifies the air by binding to off-gassing VOCs in the air and destroying them at the molecular level.
Wool is also anti-microbial in nature. This property protects sheep from mold, mildew, and bacteria that would otherwise build up in their fleece. It naturally wicks away moisture and is temperature regulating, keeping both you and the sheep warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Sadly, the industry standard for wool is to treat it with a pesticide, boric acid, to keep insects such as moths away. Our wool, however, is free from any pesticides or chemical additives. It is protected from moths by being encased in our organic cotton pillow ticking.
