Complete transport solutions designed for the wool industry. From collection at origin to international delivery, we ensure safe and traceable movement of the wool through every step of the supply chain.
Inside the wool scouring process
At Castilwool, we transform raw wool into clean, high-quality fiber through a careful, multi-step process. From the reception of fleece to the final preparation, each phase is handled with precision and sustainability in mind. Our goal is to ensure optimal cleanliness, fiber integrity, and efficiency at every stage.
1
We receive raw wool from trusted farms. Each batch is checked for dirt, seeds, and other impurities to ensure only clean, traceable wool enters the process.
2
Wool is mechanically opened and conditioned to loosen fibres, remove compacted material, and ensure proper separation before scouring.
3
Using specialised equipment and biodegradable detergents, the wool is thoroughly cleaned. Grease, dust and impurities are removed in hot water cycles.
4
Moisture is removed gradually with a controlled drying system. This ensures the wool retains its structure and softness, avoiding damage from overheating.
5
Each lot is evaluated for cleanliness, fibre integrity and uniformity. Only wool that meets our high standards proceeds to packaging or further processing.
6
Cleaned and approved wool is pressed, packed, and prepared for delivery. From local distribution to international shipping, we ensure safe transport and traceability.
