Possumsilk Collection is a luxurious range of Possumsilk knitwear and accessories for both men and women. Koru's Possumsilk™ is a blend of 50% merino lambswool, 40% possum fibre and 10% silk which is extremely warm, soft and lightweight to wear. Possumsilk also has superior anti-pill properties. The reason Possumsilk is so warm and lightweight is because of the possum fibre's unique hollow structure, which gives it excellent thermal properties. The possum fur is blended with merino lambswool and silk to give it added softness and strength.KORU has combined the wonderful benefits of Possumsilk with great design to bring you an exclusive range of knitwear that is a pleasure to wear.Possumsilk Collection by KORU™ is manufactured by Knitting Establishment Ltd at our knitwear manufacturing premises in Warkworth, where we take great pride in ensuring strict quality control procedures are met throughout the production process. Our knitwear company has been manufacturing quality knitwear for the past 25 years giving us a wealth of knowledge and expertise in the industry.Saving New Zealand's EnvironmentThe possum fibre in Possumsilk comes from the New Zealand Brushtail Possum which is an introduced species causing enormous ecological damage to New Zealand's native forests and wildlife. Brushtail Possums reproduce prolifically in New Zealand's lush environment which means they are not only eating our native plants and trees at a tremendous rate but are also in direct competition for food with our native wildlife. At present there are approximately 80 million Brushtail Possums in New Zealand.Your purchase of Possumsilk Collection™ products will help to protect New Zealand's beautiful native forests and wildlife from destruction as well as providing you with a luxurious, high quality garment.
