We simply love alpacas and everything they stand for.
WHAT MAKES ALPACAS SUSTAINABLE?
SOFTLY-PADDED HOOVES REDUCE DAMAGE TO THE SOIL.
EXTREME CLIMATES REQUIRE ALPACAS TO BE EXTREMELY WATER- AND FOOD EFFICIENT.
ALPACAS PLUCK AND NIBBLE ON GRASS, LEAVING THE ROOTS AND SOIL INTACT.
ALPACAS LOVE TO EAT NATIVE PLANTS - NO NEED FOR MONO-CROPS.
PREMIUM WOOL QUALITY MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO REMAIN CHEMICAL-FREE.
WOOL YIELDS ARE THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF INCOME FOR MOST SMALL ALPACA BREEDERS.
THERMO-REGULATING
Alpaca fiber is lightweight yet offers superior warmth in cold conditions and breathability in warmth, making it an ideal material for year-round wear. Its unique hollow structure allows air circulation while maintaining heat, ensuring comfort without overheating. Cool alpacas - happy alpacas.
SOFT AS CASHMERE
Softness of a fiber is measured in microns; the smaller the micron, the finer and softer the wool. Good quality alpaca typically has a thickness ranging from 18-23 microns, while most cashmere fibers fall at 19 microns.
PERFECT HARMONY
Alpacas roam the Andean Highlands together with their alpaca breeders (= alpaquero) and follow the availability of grass through the mountains. A healthy environment equals a healthy herd equals a healthy alpaquero. This mutually beneficial relationship is a perfect example of sustainable alpaca farming.
"Alpacas are way more than 'just' these cute and fluffy animals. They provide thousands of individuals financial stability and livelihood, are thΓ© sustainable and chemical-free alternative to mass industries, and are an everyday reminder for me to be more in touch with Nature."
