About Wool Pile

Before written history, mankind was using wool to make life better and comfortable. Although scientists have tried many times to make a synthetic product with all of the qualities of wool, they have never succeeded. Nothing compares with the comfort, resilience, versatility, and health benefits of pure wool. Hypoallergenic - Wool is resistant to bacteria, mold, and mildew, which trigger reactions in some people. Temperature controlled - Wool is warm in cool weather, cool when it's warm. Naturally fire retardant - Wool extinguishes itself when touched to a flame. It won't continue to burn. Because of this fact, firemen wear wool clothing. Dust mite repellant - Dust mites need moisture to survive. Wool evaporates moisture quickly and is inhospitable to dust mites.
