WHY A SPECIAL DETERGENT
Woolskin was developed to maintain the comfort and therapeutic advantages of wool and sheepskin products, such as:
Medical Sheepskins wash , sheepskin car seat covers, sheepskin baby rugs, sheepskin clothing and footwear. Maintaining the special texture of woollen products is very dependent on the laundering process and type of detergent used.
Woolskin: Sheepskin wash & wool wash with conditioner, is formulated using the latest in tanning technology. Woolskin will wash the wool fibres and skin and add a ‘conditioner’ that will maintain the softness and feel of both.
Woolskin has applications for domestic, hospital and commercial laundry use.
Pure new wool has a coating of protein around each fibre. This protein acts as a shield or barrier that contributes to the air circulation between wool fibres. Sheepskin and wool create a unique comfort and have therapeutic advantages not seen in other materials..
