Knitwear & RWS – “Responsible Wool Standard”
The Responsible Wool Standard is a voluntary standard that addresses the welfare of sheep and the land they graze on.
The Standard:
- Ensures that wool comes from farms that have a progressive approach to managing their land, practice holistic respect for animal welfare of the sheep, respect the Five Freedoms of animal welfare – see below, and meet standards for health and safety of workers.
- Ensures a strong chain of custody for certified materials as they move through the supply chain.
- Ensures methods to protect soil health, biodiversity and native species.
The Five Freedoms of sheep are protected:
- Freedom from hunger, malnutrition and thirst
- Freedom from fear and distress
- Freedom from physical and thermal discomfort
- Freedom from pain, injury and disease
- Freedom to express normal patterns of behaviour.
Knitwear & Polyester Fibre
Polyester is blended with natural fibres to improve stability of knitwear. The polyester fibres used in the blended yarns are technically advanced for sustainability and wearability.
Cotton/Polyester blend:
- “CiCLO®”, is a recycled polyester (made from plastic bottles). CiCLO is a more sustainable option to conventional polyester, where the fibres biodegrade at a similar rate to natural fibres.
Linen/Polyester blend:
- “Cool Jade™” polyester has been infused with recycled jade to create a natural cooling effect and quick drying properties.
