In recent years, mulesing-free has become one of the most important issues surrounding merino wool. More and more people want to know not only what a garment looks like, but also how it was made.
That’s why at MeriBoo we work only with mulesing-free merino wool—because we believe quality starts with the material’s origin.
What is mulesing?
Mulesing is a practice used on some merino sheep farms, most often in Australia. The procedure was developed to prevent infections caused by certain types of flies. It is often performed without anesthesia and can cause sheep serious discomfort and pain.
What does mulesing-free mean?
When merino wool is labeled “mulesing free,” it means it comes from sheep that have NOT been subjected to this practice!
MeriBoo uses mulesing-free merino wool!
For us, this is more than just a trend or a marketing term.
We use mulesing-free merino wool because we believe that true quality starts with how the material itself is made.
It’s part of MeriBoo’s philosophy: working with care for the origin, quality, and modern standards for responsible production.
Mulesing-free is more than just a label!
It’s an approach to how a fabric is made. That’s why at MeriBoo we use mulesing-free merino wool!
