Be cool - be Swisswool!
Swisswool is an ecological material made with virgin sheep wool (88%) grown in the Swiss mountains and reinforced with vegetable fibers. Swisswool is a local and sustainable product. Farmers bring the raw wool to collecting places around Switzerland. The fleeces are sorted in different qualities. The finest qualities are then used to produce the Swisswool for Zizzz products.
The most important advantages of Swisswool are:
- 100% natural
- breathable
- local and sustainable
- machine washable
The wool helps to wick moisture away. This together with the breathability makes Swisswool ideal for use as a filling material in sleeping bags and duvets. It helps to keep your body at the right temperature when you sleep. Try it and you will be convinced!
In the pictures on the right you can see the collection of the wool in the Swiss Alpine village of Turtmann. The local farmers have brought their wool. The wool is inspected and sorted and pressed into bales for transport.
