Ethical Sourcing: How We Ensure the Welfare of Animals

At Woollando, we understand that the quality and comfort of our wool products are deeply intertwined with the care and respect we show to the animals who provide us with this exquisite material. Ethical sourcing is not just a buzzword for us—it’s a cornerstone of our business. Our commitment to animal welfare ensures that our bed linen, blankets, clothes, pillows, plaids, sheepskins, and threads are not only of the highest quality but also responsibly sourced.

The Importance of Animal Welfare in Wool Production

Sourcing wool ethically means more than just obtaining high-quality fleece. It involves a comprehensive approach where the well-being of animals is paramount. Ethical practices in wool sourcing include ensuring that sheep and other wool-bearing animals are treated humanely, have access to their natural habitat, and are not subjected to unnecessary stress or harm. This humane treatment reflects in the superior quality and durability of our products.

Benefits of Ethical Wool Sourcing

Enhanced Product Quality: Happy animals produce better wool. Stress-free environments and good nutrition lead to stronger, softer, and more resilient fibers.
Sustainable Practices: Ethical sourcing promotes sustainable agriculture and helps preserve natural ecosystems, ensuring that future generations continue to enjoy these precious resources.
Consumer Trust and Satisfaction: Customers today are increasingly aware and concerned about the origins of their products. Ethical practices build trust and foster loyal relationships with our customers.

Our Ethical Sourcing Practices

Raising Standards on Farms

Responsible Shearing: Shearing is carried out with the utmost care to ensure it is a quick, painless process for the animals. Our shearers are trained professionals who follow humane techniques to avoid any harm or distress to the sheep.
Natural Grazing Conditions: Our partner farms ensure that sheep and other wool-bearing animals graze freely in their natural habitats. This not only keeps the animals healthy and stress-free but also maintains the quality of their fleece. Free grazing supports the sheep’s natural behaviors and contributes to the health of the environment.
Health and Nutrition: Proper nutrition is essential for the wellbeing of wool-bearing animals. We ensure that our partner farms provide a balanced diet and regular veterinary checks to keep sheep healthy and thriving. Happy, healthy sheep produce the best quality wool.

Ethical Certification and Transparency

Woollando proudly supports certifications like the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) and other recognized animal welfare certifications. These certifications ensure that farms adhere to the highest standards of ethical treatment, environmental sustainability, and social responsibility. Transparency is crucial, and we provide our customers with detailed information about the origins and care involved in the products they purchase.
