We are connecting Canadian wool to the world—creating opportunity from fleece to finished product.

#ChooseWool

There’s no other fibre like it in the world. While wool is soft, warm, strong, and technically versatile, it’s also naturally beautiful. A natural fibre, it is also biodegradable and safe to people and the environment. The benefits of wool extend from durable homewares to high-performance activewear to luxurious accessories and more.

The Campaign for Wool a platform for engagement and education; showing Canadians the benefits of wool as a fibre as well as the importance of supporting their domestic wool industry.

We bring together major fashion designers, woolgrowers, retailers, manufacturers, artisans and interior designers to celebrate wool’s endless myriad of uses – from fashion to home insulation.

Celebrating Canadian wool

We work with partners along the entire value chain with the goal of reviving the Canadian wool industry. Our mission is driven by three main goals:

  • - Rebrand and revalue Canadian wool

  • - Advocate for the entire Canadian wool value chain

  • - Give Canadian wool a voice on the international stage
