Is an alpaca wool blanket better than acrylic blankets?
While it is difficult to say if one is 'better' than the other, alpaca wool does have many benefits over pure acrylic blankets that we can discuss. Alpaca wool is sourced ethically from alpaca farmers in Peru. Authentic alpaca farmers in Peru live in harsh conditions to take care of their alpacas. Roaming the Highlands like nomads keeps the alpacas healthy and the fleece one of the most luxurious wool types in the world. Purely acrylic blankets do not have this generational and traditional heritage linked to them. While modern processes have made production easier, they also took away a large share of the emotions, cultural wisdom, and artistry from the process. To combine the best of both worlds, Inkari has chosen to use a blend of raw materials. Combining the softness and luxury of alpaca wool with the durability of merino wool, while adding a small touch of acrylic for the finish alpaca fans love.
Are alpaca wool blankets fairtrade?
Every alpaca blanket is a testament to the cultural and ancestral heritage of Peruvian artisans. Each step in the process of working with alpacas and their fiber is founded on generations of artisans fine-tuning their methods to create a beautiful product fit for kings and queens. Imagine a queen and king sitting on a soft Alpaca Rug. Inkari works together with 50+ local artisan families in Lima and near the Andean Highlands, while maintaining a steady growth of this number each year.
