Since the Woolmark logo was created in 1964, it has grown to be universally recognised by the global fashion industry and consumers as a dependable symbol of quality wool products.
Products bearing the famous motif are tested to ensure it meets key performance standards and worthy of carrying the symbol. These standards assess wool content, colour fastness, stability, wear and defects and are continually revised to maintain the high quality that has become synonymous with the Woolmark brand. They are the standards that have made Merino wool one of the most luxurious textiles to be found anywhere.
