Sourced from The Chatsworth Estate, United Kingdom

The best in wool bedding meets the finest quality wool sourced right from the Chatsworth Estate, one of the UK’s finest stately homes and home to the Devonshire family since the 16th Century. This beautiful landmark in the English countryside with its open parkland is home to flocks of downs type sheep, whose fleece is perfect for producing the finest wool bedding. Chatsworth wool forms part of our Wool ID® traceable wool programme, and supports our aim to obtain the very best wool from the very best farms across the UK and provide full transparency on those sources.

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 Wool ID½ programme assures the next step of our 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 Wool ID½ assured farm onwards is robustly audited, from the collection, washing and combing of the wool, to going into a carefully hand-crafted Woolroom Traceable product that is identifiable by a high fiber quality, strong animal welfare policies and full farm provenance.

Leaders in Machine Washable Wool Bedding

It is impossible to make a wool product machine washable without using some form of treatment on the fiber. It is complex and requires a lot of skill and knowledge. In fact, 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, if 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 fibers will start to damage and clump beyond repair. Our Chatsworth range overcomes this as the British wool we use is bathed in a chlorine solution, which smooths out the natural barbs you find in wool (these are what cause untreated wool to shrink, clump and ultimately felt).

The solution is then thoroughly rinsed out of the fiber twice to ensure there is less residual chlorine than you'd find in tap water, and doesn't affect the performance of the fiber whatsoever. Some brands claim that their wool bedding is 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 our all three bedding ranges (including Chatsworth) at the University of Bangor for chemical off-gassing and residual chemicals. We are very pleased to announce that no traces of chemicals or harmful toxins were found in any of the three bedding ranges. In addition, the above prcoess achieves Oekotex Class 100 standard for safety. Woolroom is once again leading the way in providing the safest and most natural sleep option whilst also delivering practicality.
