Wool in our everyday lives

The complex structure of wool gives this material its attractive appearance and makes it extremely useful. Every strand is flexible and strong. It is a living, breathing material. It has a unique physical and chemical structure, which is why it is regarded as one of nature’s miracles. No other material is better at expelling moisture and perspiration while allowing air to circulate so that the skin remains fresh and dry the whole night long.

Wool keeps the body at an even temperature, making it an excellent climate regulator. It alleviates joint pain and reduces the risk of kidney inflammation and urinary infections. Its delicate surface is coated in natural lanolin, which calms the skin, lowers stress and has an anti-rheumatic effect. Since no kind of dust or dust mite can cling to it, wool does not cause allergic reactions.

The DEMKO® wool collection combines the excellent properties of wool with thousands of years of mankind’s experience. Choose from a wide range of DEMKO® products made from 100% lambswool and cashmere, and manufactured to exacting professional standards.

Wool blankets, under-blankets and pillows help you wake up rested and regenerated. The beneficial effects of wool on the heart are corroborated by experiments. The heart of a person sleeping in a high-quality wool environment beats more calmly.

A good pillow is one of our most personal possessions. Without one it is almost impossible to sleep. Sleeping habits, and what we want from a pillow, are extremely varied. It is essential to have a wide range of pillows to choose from in order to find the one that suits you best. The DEMKO® selection of pillows is ideal in every way.

We spend a third of our lives in bed. A good quality wool blanket, under-blanket and pillow can be like a second skin. Our custom-tailored bed inserts provide optimal support for your spine. Together, the DEMKO® BioSystem and DEMKO® wool cashmere set form a natural cocoon for the human body, as an essential means of ensuring ideal and regenerating sleep.

Wool is the most natural material around. The DEMKO® products made from this material provide their users with an ideal, long-lasting natural cocoon at night, which is essential for ensuring sound sleep.

DEMKO® wool:

• Guaranteed 100% pure lambswool
• Wool is a biologically active material.
• Thanks to its bilateral structure, wool “breathes”. It absorbs the moisture given off by your body, and expels it into the air through the movement of the fibres, thus creating the ideal climate for your body. You don’t sweat in wool. Wool is capable of absorbing one third of its own weight in water vapour without seeming damp, while liquid water simply runs off it.
• It’s excellent at retaining warmth. Its ability to absorb and expel moisture, and its heat retaining quality, make it an excellent climate regulator. You can test this with your own hands: just put your hands into a folded-over wool blanket, and in a few seconds you’ll experience its effect.
• The lanolin coating of the wool fibres makes it hypoallergenic, and pleasant to touch.
• Wool is very breathable.
• It’s antistatic, self-cleaning and dust-repellent.
• It’s hygienic and PH neutralising.
• It’s long-lasting.
• It’s cleanable and washable.
