Choose Improved Air Quality�

Safer , cleaner , better …

The air we breathe is like the food we eat — it needs to be as good as we can make it . Increasingly , we need to be aware of our surroundings and how they affect the quality of our lives and the health of our bodies . The level of invisible contaminants in the internal environment is often the culprit behind breathing issues and ill health . But wool is a fibre that can make internal air a lot cleaner and help create a healthier , safer place to live .

Cleaner internal air

Wool can help with allergy to dust as it traps the particles in its minute scales and holds them until vacuumed . This means that air inside the wool-carpeted or -furnished room will carry fewer floating dust particles and offer a better quality of air for breathing . This does not cause the fibre to become soiled ; wool can resist and conceal soiling , and the dust will be released on being cleaned or vacuumed .
