Wool Measurement Pilot Project - Launched
- Wednesday, 10 April 2013
The next-to-skin wool knitwear trade is set to be revolutionised by two ground-breaking new fabric testing devices, the Wool ComfortMeter and Wool HandleMeter, which are now available for commercial use through the AWTA Ltd.
"The global wool industry is now ready for the release of a new generation of next-to-skin knitwear...........this is now available with the development of the Wool ComfortMeter and Wool HandleMeter"
Used together the Wool ComfortMeter and Wool HandleMeter allow manufacturers and retailers to produce and market greatly improved next-to-skin garments. These new devices objectively and accurately measure the comfort and handle of light-weight wool garments, and provide an effective method of assuring next-to-skin comfort and predictable feel for the consumer.
Sheep CRC has put together the following information on the Wool ComfortMeter and Wool HandleMeter:
