Frequently Asked Questions
What is recycled wool and how is it made?
Recycled wool is made by repurposing wool offcuts from the factory, which are then processed, and spun into new yarn. Waverley Mills' recycled wool blankets blend sustainability with craftsmanship, offering eco-friendly alternatives that reduce textile waste while maintaining wool’s natural warmth and durability.
Is recycled wool sustainable?
Yes, recycled wool is a highly sustainable option. By reusing existing wool fibres, we reduce the need for new resources, minimise textile waste, and lower the environmental impact of production, making our recycled wool blankets a perfect choice for eco-conscious consumers.
Where are your recycled blankets made?
Our recycled wool blankets are proudly made in Launceston, Tasmania, at the historic Waverley Mills. As Australia’s last remaining woollen mill of its kind, we are committed to producing high-quality, sustainable blankets that honour our heritage. From start to finish, every thread is spun, woven and finished at our historic Mill by Distillery Creek in Tasmania.
Are recycled wool blankets as soft and durable as regular wool blankets?
Yes, recycled wool blankets can offer similar softness and durability to regular wool blankets. While they may have a slightly different texture due to the nature of the repurposed fibres, they retain wool’s insulating properties, making them a warm, comfortable, and long-lasting choice.
Can recycled wool blankets be machine washed, or do they require special care?
We recommend hand washing recycled wool blankets to preserve their quality. You can find additional care instructions here to help you to maintain your blankets softness and durability over time.
