Chlorine-free Organic Merino Wool

Most wool, in order to make it machine washable, is still treated with CHLORINE. Chlorine is cheap, toxic, and polluting and creates allergic reactions.

Nui GOTS Certified Organic Merino Wool is NOT processed using chlorine:

Nui uses GOTS-approved PLASMA treatment, safe for the wearer AND the environment.

Without treatment, when the wool is washed and dried, these scales all tangle together and cause shrinking and felting. The most conventional and common way to render wool machine washable is to treat it with chlorine. This process, however, results in wastewater with unacceptably high levels of adsorbable organohalogens (AOX) – toxins created when chlorine reacts with available carbon-based compounds. Dioxins, a group of AOX, are one of the most toxic known substances. This wastewater is so toxic in fact, that the process is not even permitted in the USA. It happens in ‘other countries’ and the processed wool is then imported into the US.

That is why it is so important to choose chlorine-free GOTS organic wool
