Deluxe Washable Wool Pillow

Fully Farm Traceable and Machine Washable

Due to the success of our Luxury Traceable Organic range, we are delighted to be able to introduce traceability into our best-selling washable wool pillows. Combining traceability with genuine machine washable pillows makes this bedding range quite unique. The wool in our machine washable pillows has always been sustainable, renewable and biodegradable, but now it’s also fully traceable.
So what does this mean for your sleep?

With your comfort at the forefront of our mind, we have always offered high-quality, clean and responsibly sourced wool. But now, with the introduction of traceability, we can offer definitive proof of the ethical and sustainable nature of our washable wool pillows – right back to the very farm the filling came from.

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. Our exclusive relationship with Woolkeepers is an industry first, and assures the next step of the evolution of our supply chain, with 100% British Wool that's traceable right back to the farm.

This relationship means that every part of our supply chain (from a Woolkeepers assured farm onwards) is robustly audited – from the collection, washing and combing of the wool, to going into a carefully hand-crafted Woolroom traceable washable wool pillow that is identifiable by a high-fibre quality, strong animal welfare policies and full farm provenance.

Leaders in Machine Washable Pillows

It is impossible to make a washable wool pillow without using some form of treatment on the fibre. It’s complex, and requires a lot of skill and knowledge. That’s why it has taken us over a decade to perfect a washable pillow that performs flawlessly, without losing any of the quality or performance that our customers expect.

Ordinarily, if you wash wool the moisture, heat and movement in the machine will cause it to felt and shrink. You might be lucky and get away with a single delicate wash, but over time the natural fibres will start to damage and clump beyond repair. Our Deluxe washable bed pillow overcomes this, as the British wool we use is bathed in a chlorine solution which smooths out the natural barbs you find in the fibre (these are what cause untreated wool to shrink, clump and ultimately felt).

The solution is then thoroughly rinsed out of the fibre (twice!) to ensure there is less residual chlorine than you'd find in tap water, making sure that this process doesn’t affect the performance of the fibre. Some brands claim that their adjustable wool pillows are machine washable, but unless the wool is treated in this way, it simply cannot withstand the vigorous motion of a washing machine combined with warm water.

Is this process safe?

In March 2018, we tested all of our bedding ranges at the University of Bangor for chemical off-gassing and residual chemicals. We are pleased to announce that no traces of chemicals or harmful toxins were found in any of the three ranges – including our washable wool pillows. In addition, the above process achieves Oekotex Class 100 standard for safety, meaning that Woolroom is once again leading the way in providing the safest and most natural sleep option.

Experience the Woolroom Difference with a Washable Pillow You’ll notice an immediate difference when you compare our wool pillows to alternatives, including down, feather and synthetics. Our Deluxe washable pillows are designed to keep you sleeping for longer, maintaining your body temperature and bringing you a naturally healthy sleep. Wool is a truly natural fibre that manages heat and moisture effectively, reducing humidity throughout the night. What’s more, all Woolroom products are also free from chemicals and fire retardants.

While committed to providing our customers with high-quality, natural sleep, we’re also extremely focused on reducing the impact that plastic is having on our planet. That’s why we send all of our washable wool pillows in a reusable, all-natural calico bag – an iconic part of the Woolroom brand. On top of that, all Woolroom bedding can be recycled and/or composted at the end of their lives, providing better sleep for you and the planet.
