Merino wool is well known as one of the best quality natural fibres in the world. It’s natural, biodegradable and renewable, making it the perfect choice for those seeking environmentally friendly clothing as well as those wanting soft, warm and luxurious garments.

Temperature control is incredibly important for infants, since their little bodies are less able to regulate their own body temperature. Merino protects your baby from temperature extremes due to its superb ability to insulate and breathe at the same time. With merino you can stay warm or cool, no matter what season. 

The insulation merino wool provides has made wool synonymous with warmth for hundreds of years. Having a natural crimp in the fibre gives merino its insulation and breathability super-powers. Stay warm in winter and cool in summer. Who could ask for more?

With the amount of washing a baby creates, along with our busy lifestyles, we are all interested in easy care, and Merino fibres have a natural protective layer that helps to repel stains from being absorbed, as well as odours. Being less prone to static, it attracts fewer dust mites, which is perfect for those suffering from allergies. The silky component of the wool is also ideal for those with skin irritations that have in the past never been able to wear wool.

To care for your baby’s Merino product, always follow the care instructions on the packaging label, turn garments inside out to wash and dry and wash dark colours separately. You can machine luke warm wash, gentle wool cycle, using wool approved detergent and give it a gentle machine short cycle spin. Do not tumble dry, soak use hot water, use soaps use bleach, use nappy cleansing agents, spot clean, wring, use garment brighteners or fabric softeners. Dry flat away from direct sunlight. Merino products may be dry-cleaned, and ironed with a cool iron.
