Cheviot Wool
Cheviot Wool: the Ultimate Natural Fiber for Comfort & Sustainability
Cheviot wool is one of the most hygroscopic natural fibers, capable of absorbing moisture up to a third of its weight without feeling wet. This remarkable property is due to the structure of the wool fiber, which is made up of amino acids that attract and bind water molecules. This allows wool to temporarily absorb excess humidity and then release it back into the environment, promoting natural breathability.
Thermal Insulation and Temperature Regulation
One of the standout qualities of wool is its ability to provide excellent thermal insulation. Whether in hot or cold climates, wool helps maintain a consistent body temperature by keeping the body cool when external temperatures rise and warm when they drop. Wool also absorbs and expels body moisture, further contributing to temperature regulation.
Durability and Environmental Benefits of Wool
Wool is not only fireproof and water-repellent, but it is also resistant to mold and does not produce electrostatic charges. Its natural properties make it a sustainable, recyclable fiber that can be washed and reused many times without losing its quality. This makes Cheviot wool an environmentally friendly choice for high-quality, long-lasting mattresses.
