Yes. Wool carpet is an excellent choice for allergy sufferers. Its natural fibres trap dust, pollen, and other allergens, holding them until vacuumed – helping to improve indoor air quality. Unlike some synthetic carpets, wool doesn’t release harmful chemicals or VOCs.
Wool is naturally stain-resistant to a degree, thanks to its lanolin coating. This natural protection helps wool carpets repel spills and resist soiling. However, it's important to treat any accidents promptly and correctly. We recommend checking our comprehensive Carpet Care Guide before attempting to remove any stains, to ensure the best results and to maintain warranty.

For living rooms, comfort and style are key. Heavy weight loop or cut pile wool carpets create a soft, luxurious feel underfoot, while offering warmth and acoustic benefits. Our range includes styles to complement both modern and classic interiors.
Bedrooms deserve softness and relaxation. All of our products are suitable for bedrooms, it simply comes down to your preferred style and feel. We recommend plush or cut pile wool carpets for their cosy texture and warmth. These carpets add a touch of luxury while helping to insulate against noise and cold floors.
Stairs need durability and resilience. Low pile cut or loop carpets are ideal for stairs because they withstand heavy foot traffic and resist flattening. Their texture also adds grip for safety.
For homes with pets, textured wool carpets are a practical choice. Their natural fibres help resist dirt and stains, while the texture can disguise pet hair and minor marks. Wool is also easy to clean and naturally odour-resistant.
Wool carpet is one of the most sustainable flooring options available. Wool is renewable, biodegradable, and naturally regenerates on sheep every year. Our sourcing partners follow strict environmental and animal welfare standards, ensuring responsible production from farm to floor.
