We are the people who know wool inside and out: our team digs into the science behind wool's amazing properties, tracks global wool markets, and works with our members to tackle everything from sustainable farming practices to innovative processing techniques. Whether we're publishing peer-reviewed research on wool's environmental benefits, setting international wool trading standards, or sharing stories about cutting-edge wool innovations, our mission is simple: making sure people understand why wool is such an extraordinary fibre. IWTO posts reflect our collective expertise and passion for all things wool, backed by nearly a century of industry knowledge and a global network of wool professionals.
