Sheep's wool

Other names: wool

Sheep wool, also known as "wool", is an important natural material that is widely used in the textile industry. It is a microscopic hair from the skin of sheep, which is characterised by its excellent insulating properties and its ability to wick moisture away from the body. At the same time, sheep's wool is highly durable and elastic, which guarantees the longevity of products made from it. To this day, it is still used in particular in colder climates, both for the production of clothing and for various household needs.

Some of the best known and most sought-after products made from sheep's wool include sweaters, coats, scarves, hats, gloves, as well as blankets, quilts and carpets. Thanks to its unique properties, wool is also often used in outdoor and sports fashion, where it serves very well as a thermoregulating layer. Last but not least, wool is also used in industry - for example, thermal and acoustic insulation, filter materials or special textiles for technical purposes are made from wool fibres. Sheep's wool is therefore a versatile material that finds application in many areas of our lives.
