What can this wool wadding be used for?
220GSM - Light and Airy
At 15mm thick, this is perfect for those in-between seasons or when you want a bit more insulation without the bulk. Great for breathable quilts, lightweight jackets, and layering projects that keep you snug but not stifled.
400GSM - Thick and Toasty
This one is for the chilly nights! A chunkier wadding at 22mm thick, delivering serious warmth and comfort. Ideal for those winter duvets, heavier quilts, padded jackets, or maybe a luxurious throw for curling up with.
Why choose our Alpaca/PLA Wadding?
Our wadding offers a unique blend that supports eco-friendly initiatives while providing exceptional comfort. The PLA gives the wadding a structure and helps it not to flatten out, bouncing back. It's so soft and warm!
What is PLA?
PLA stands for polylactic acid, which is a bioplastic lofting agent made from corn starch or sugar cane. PLA is an eco-friendly and effective alternative to polyester fibres. Combining a proportion of PLA with the wool makes a more light and lofty material. The added loftiness provides extra insulating properties without adding weight.
Can I wash this product?
Alpaca wool needs to be handwashed in cool water using a mild non-biological detergent.
Alpaca fibres are delicate and can mat or felt together when exposed to agitation or heat. This can make the quilt lumpy and less insulating.
