WOOL
A natural high-quality material
Wool
Wool is a timeless and versatile material that has been valued for centuries for its durability, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. By using wool for your furniture, you bring a unique combination of quality and naturalness into any room. The natural properties of wool make it ideal for your furniture. It is durable, naturally resistant to dirt, and has a natural elasticity that ensures the fabric fits beautifully on your furniture for many years to come. In addition, wool has excellent insulation properties, making it warm in the winter and colder in the summer.

Here you get long-lasting quality furniture, so we together can counteract the "buy-and-throw-away" culture and leave as small a footprint as possible on our shared Earth. Several of our wool textiles are therefore also made from recycled materials, making it easier for you to make sustainable choices when choosing new furniture.
Care and maintenance
1. We always recommend regular vacuuming to prevent dirt from settling and accumulating over time.
2. If stains occur on wool furniture, they should be treated immediately. Use a soft cloth or sponge dipped in a mild soap solution and gently dab at the stain. Avoid rubbing, as it can spread the stain further. Use only a minimal amount of water.
3. Professional cleaning may be a good idea for deeper cleaning or stubborn stains.
3 important qualities
Martindale, pilling, and lightfastness tell something about the textile's durability. Here you can read more about what each of them means and how you should interpret them.
The Martindale test is a standard method used to measure the wear resistance of upholstery fabric. In the test, a machine rubs against the fabric a specific number of times to simulate normal use over time. The higher the number of Martindale cycles a fabric can withstand, the more durable it is. This is an important indicator when choosing fabric for furniture that will be used frequently, such as a sofa or an armchair.
- 10,000 to 15,000 Martindale: Suitable for light use and decorative purposes.
- 15,000 to 25,000 Martindale: Good for regular use in private homes.
- 25,000 to 30,000 Martindale: Very durable, suitable for frequent use in most homes.
- Over 30,000 Martindale: Extremely durable, suitable for frequently used public spaces.
Pilling on furniture refers to the formation of small, fuzz-like balls on the surface of the fabric. This often occurs as a result of friction or wear when fibers loosen from the fabric and roll up into small knots. Pilling is not necessarily a sign of low quality, but it can affect the fabric's appearance and texture. Pilling is typically assessed on a scale from 1 to 5 in tests, where 5 is the best score with minimal pilling and 1 indicates a high degree of pilling. For upholstery fabric, it's ideal to choose a material with a higher pilling score to ensure that it retains its nice appearance over time, especially in furniture that is used frequently, like sofas and armchairs.
It's also worth noting that some textiles, like wool, may naturally pill more at the beginning, but this often decreases over time and with use. There are also tools and methods to remove pilling, such as a fabric shaver, which can help maintain the fabric's appearance.
Lightfastness refers to the fabric's ability to resist color changes when exposed to light, especially sunlight. This is an important property since furniture is often placed in areas where it can be exposed to direct or indirect sunlight, which can lead to fading or changes in color over time.
Lightfastness is assessed on a scale from 1 to 8, where 8 indicates the highest degree of resistance to light-induced fading. A fabric with a high lightfastness value, for example, 6-8, is ideal for furniture in sunny rooms or close to windows, as it will retain its color better over a longer period. Textiles with lower lightfastness values, such as 1-3, are more prone to fade quickly and are better suited for areas with less direct light.
