This paper describes research undertaken by AgResearch New Zealand, and other organisations to enhance the eco-credentials of wool floorcoverings, and thereby to help maintain, or enhance, wool’s position within the global textile industry. Technologies recently commercialised or under development for environmentally sound wool floorcoverings, will be reviewed in the areas of harvesting, protection from insect pests, wet-processing, in-use environmental impact, contribution to the built environment, and recycling.
