Camel wool products

Camel wool products are considered luxury because it is one of the most exclusive materials in the world, and rightfully so.

Camel wool

Camel wool, also known as "camel hair", is a luxurious type of natural fiber obtained from the pelt of Bactrian, double-humped camels. Wool is soft, warm, and lightweight, making it a popular material for clothing and textiles.

Camel hair is known for its durability and resistance to abrasion , making it a popular choice for everyday items.

Characteristics of camel wool duvets

Camel wool has excellent insulating properties that make it a great choice for blankets and quilts. It retains heat well in winter, but due to its breathability, it does not cause sweating, unlike artificial materials such as polyester. In addition, its natural, water-repellent (hydrophobic) properties make it very resistant to sweat, which is suitable for people who have a problem with night sweats.

Camel hair is also a sustainable and environmentally friendly choice. Camels can survive in arid and semi-arid areas where other livestock would not be able to survive. This means that camel wool production has a lower environmental impact than many other types of wool production.

Unlike other animals that must be sheared to obtain their wool, Bactrian camels naturally shed their hair in late spring or early summer. This means that camel hair is a more sustainable source and there are fewer concerns about animal abuse during the harvesting process, as is the case with other types of wood. Camels do not have to be restrained, facing the possibility of injury, to have their wool collected; farmers can simply wait for all the hair to fall off the camel.

Camel wool is considered hypoallergenic . Most allergies to wool, most often sheep wool, are reactions to lanolin, a fatty substance secreted by animals that wear wool. However, camels show a special characteristic in that they produce significantly less lanolin, which makes camel wool less allergenic.

Natural duvets vs polyester

Natural duvets, especially those made from exclusive types of wool such as camel wool, are considered a much healthier and superior choice than synthetic materials such as polyester.
