Fully Farm Traceable and Machine Washable Wool Mattress Protectors

Following the success of our Luxury Organic Range, we are delighted to introduce traceability into our best-selling Deluxe Range of wool bedding v including our wool cotton mattress protectors. So not only is our Deluxe range sustainable, renewable, biodegradable and machine washable v now it¬s also fully traceable!

We always shout about the great qualities and benefits of using wool in the creation of our bedding, so our focus has always been on buying the right kind of wool. We¬re also extremely proud of our ability to offer high-quality, clean and responsibly sourced wool in all of our products. But with the introduction of our traceable wool, we can now offer definitive proof of the sustainable, ethical nature of our washable mattress protectors - right back to the very farm.

With traceability, we can guarantee that the wool we buy has been grown responsibly, the sheep have been looked after and the land well managed; but most importantly, that British farming communities are being supported with every one of our wool protectors. Our exclusive relationship with Woolkeepers is an industry first, and assures the next step of the evolution of our supply chain.

This relationship means that every part of our supply chain is robustly audited v from the collection, washing and combing of the wool, to a carefully curated washable wool mattress protector that is identifiable by a high-fibre quality, strong animal welfare policies and full farm provenance.

Leaders in Machine Washable Wool Mattress Protectors

It is impossible to make a wool product machine washable without using some form of treatment on the fibre. The process is complex and requires much skill and knowledge, which is why it has taken us over a decade to perfect a range that performs flawlessly, without losing any of the quality or performance that customers expect from Woolroom products.

Ordinarily, when you wash wool the moisture, heat and movement in the machine will cause it to felt and shrink. You might get lucky and get away with a single delicate wash, but over time the natural fibres in your wool mattress protector will start to damage and clump beyond repair. So how do you overcome this? The British wool we use is bathed in a chlorine solution, which smooths out the natural barbs and protects it against this damage.

The solution is then thoroughly rinsed out of the fibre (twice!) before it¬s added to our luxurious wool mattress protectors.

Is this process safe?

In March 2018, we tested all three of our bedding ranges at the University of Bangor for chemical off-gassing and residual chemicals. The results? No traces of chemicals or harmful toxins were found in any of the three bedding ranges. Better yet, the above process achieves Oekotex Class 100 standard for safety. So while some brands claim to produce washable mattress protectors, unless the wool is treated in this way, it simply cannot withstand the vigorous process. So once again, Woolroom is leading the way in providing the safest and most natural sleep option whilst also delivering practicality.
