We receive our wool from Natural Felt, a separate independent branch of the Bio Sleep Concept family.   We create the bats of wool by blending wool from different sheep breeds. We visit each wool grower to assure that the wool comes from healthy sheep, raised sustainably on managed lands. Paid a premium for the best fleeces of their flocks from the collaborating growers, the fleece is cleaned and carded which produces the finest known woolen batting available. Even better than most "organic" wool.

•  Proper Grazing Methods: Adequate field rotation to decrease soil erosion and to reduce the risk of sheep acquiring internal parasites
•  Predator Friendly: Growers are encouraged to use trained sheep guardian dogs (not trapping or shooting) and the inclusion of other large animals such as lamas to guard the flock.
•  Healthy Veterinary Practices: Only certain kinds of medications and supplements are used to treat the sheep.
• Alternative caring methods are used to keep the sheep healthy with fewer chemicals.
•  Chemical Control: Natural Felt opposes the use of herbicides and pesticides on the fields that sheep graze on. Natural Felt is able to determine if the growers use those chemicals with their routine wool chemical testing.
•  Scouring: Natural Felt carding mill has searched out the mildest and most environmentally friendly detergent possible for the scouring (cleaning) of the wool. Today, all of their wool is cleaned with Bio Soft Wool Scouring Detergent, which leaves no detectable residue and is biodegradable.
•  In addition to personal visit to assure proper growing methods, they send samples of their wool to laboratory for chemical testing. A sample of the raw wool is sent to University of Mass-Lowell where tests are performed comparing their batting to a competitor's for strength, resilience, flammability and endurance. Tests demonstrated that an article (Mattress or other products) made with Natural Felt batting would last twice as long as a competitor's before flattening on top.
