Mea Scarf Recycled Wool Cap Nord Blue

Baserange's recycled wool comes from a recycling factory close to their knitting mill in Occitania, France. The factory mostly works with recycled wool made of old, used wool clothing from the collection bins of local charities. Working with recycled wool ahead of many others allowed the factory to continue its operations and produce local materials. 

Wool is the most recycled fiber and was the first fiber to be recycled. It has the potential to last at least 30 years and be recycled up to six times. Recycling wool results in reduced methane emissions from sheep, reduced land use and water pollution from washing wool. 

Wool regulates body temperature and is breathable. The fabric is biodegradable, and it comes from a renewable source. Wool is often seen as the technical fabric of nature because it also absorbs moisture without feeling wet or cold, is antibacterial and has odor-fighting properties.

The wool Baserange uses is recycled in a closed loop system, meaning fibers are turned into yarn to create new products of similar quality and use to the original.
