Additional InformationLove soft, fluffy laundry but looking to take a load off your energy bills—and the planet?Moss Creek laundry products are designed to be the smarter laundry option. Our dryer balls lift and separate clothes to increase airflow and reduce drying time by up to 25%.Our wool is sourced from cruelty-free farms raising sheep bred for their wool, not to eat. Thank Ewe for sharing our Mission to promote sustainable drying and supporting wool producers who raise sheep for their wool, rather than meat.How is the wool processed?During the felting process, we use a pH-balanced unscented fabric wash called Forever New to remove residual lanolin from the wool. Aren’t all wool dryer balls the same? No — a wool dryer ball’s performance comes down to the quality of the wool itself. Finer wools make softer and tighter wool balls. A softer ball is more gentle in your dryer. A tighter ball won’t fall apart as they bounce around your dryer. To get more specific, a micron rating refers to the fiber’s thickness. The lower the micron rating, the tighter the fibers bind together during felting. We only use wool with a 25-micron rating at most.How are the sheep treated?Our wool co-ops all adhere to the following standards: Absolutely no mulesing. Mulesing is a cruel practice where parts of the sheep’s skin are cut away while raising them. Sheep must have adequate free-range time outside the barn. This improves the quality of both the sheep’s life and the wool. No harmful chemicals can be used while processing the fleece into wool roving. The sheep are never exposed to chemicals, including sheep dips. The sheep are only raised for their wool, not to eat. The best way to ensure sheep are treated humanely is to ask questions and educate the livestock industry that there is a demand for sustainable and ethically raised wool.Thank you to our suppliers at Moss Creek Wool Works for our wool balls and all the content within this post.
