Protecting the reputation of Cape Wools SA

Wool consumers worldwide deserve to know that the garment or product they have purchased comes from its claimed origin and is a genuine 100% wool article.

Using cutting-edge forensic science, Oritain can identify this unique ratio in the soil ‘imprinted’ from the ground and grass to the finished wool, creating a scientific link that runs through the land, the thread, and the final garment or consumer product.

This link remains through the life of the wool, never changing. Once a database is built, any product in the supply chain can be tested against this.
