Certificates & awards
Anyone can say sustainable and ecological. Various certificates and awards prove that we don't just throw words around, but do what we say. Constant research and development is necessary to create products that can utilise the unique properties of sheep's wool in the best possible way. We are therefore all the more pleased that we are repeatedly honoured for our work and also receive our own Genius Awards.
What we can adorn ourselves with:
