Summer For Kids is known for its organic and safe bedding options. Lately we’ve had a few questions about wool and although I’ve touched on the fantastic aspects of organic wool before, I wanted to go into more detail.
Basically, people who previously thought they had a wool allergy find that organic wool doesn’t irritate them at all. This is because people experience a chemical sensitivity to the way non-organic wool is processed. Non-organic wool goes through a harsh chemical process in which the wool is bleached, dyed, or cleaned and turned into everyday items.
Organic wool is soft to the touch and not irritating to the skin.
Wool bedding is great for those who have allergies or asthma. Dust-mites are a typical allergen found in the home and can cause both skin and respiratory irritation. Wool resists dust-mites, bacteria, and mildew, creating an allergen free environment!
It’s also an extremely breathable fabric that is cool in the summer and warm in the winter and unlike down feathers, sheep grow a coat of wool annually and are not harmed during sheering. It’s a sustainable material that is good for you, your family, and our planet!
