And blankets made from natural sheep wool also mean health. At all times, wool has been valued for its healing properties. Woolen products are especially recommended for people suffering from radiculitis or rheumatism. Wool is based on keratin, which belongs to the group of protein substances. Wool hair consists of several layers, and the fiber itself has a thin, sinuous structure and is highly durable. Thanks to these qualities, wool products retain their unique properties and excellent appearance during long-term use.
However, blankets made from merino sheep deserve special attention. The main advantage of such products is fine-fleece wool. Due to the smaller thickness of the wool, the cuticle scales that make up the base of the hair also have a significantly smaller size and less loose structure, therefore, they practically do not irritate the skin. It is for this reason that products made from merino wool are soft to the touch and pleasant to the touch.
At the same time, due to the dense weaving of merino fiber fabric, a huge number of cavities are formed between the threads, which effectively retain warm air. In this regard, woolen products retain heat well.
One of the most valuable and unique qualities of wool products is their high antibacterial properties and the ability to prevent the occurrence of unpleasant odors. Merino wool fibers, in addition to carotene proteins, contain protein cells that prevent the growth of bacteria, the waste products of which lead to an unpleasant odor.
Wool is also hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb water. At high humidity, the material can absorb up to 30% of moisture relative to its own weight without becoming damp to the touch, and slowly releases it into the environment. It should be noted that wool products require careful care.
Therefore, to ensure that your blanket retains its unique properties and excellent appearance for as long as possible, follow our care recommendations.
