Alpaca is sustainable, non-allergenic, odour and mildew resistant and lighter than wool and proudly New Zealand made.
Alpaca boasts one of the highest moisture wicking properties of all natural fibres. Wicking and absorbing moisture are two different things. Wicking is when the fibre transports moisture away from its source to the outside of a fabric where it is able to evaporate. Wool and cotton are very absorbent but have lower wicking properties than Alpaca.
Alpaca on the other hand, has low moisture absorbency with great wicking properties resulting in better comfort and warmth.
The Fibers contain microscopic air pockets which trap air and also release moisture. These pockets also give it lightness and a high thermal capacity.
Alpacas lack the natural body oils produced by most animals and therefore the fibre is odourless and naturally non-allergenic.
It is these properties that make Alpaca a great fibre for bedding products.
