Merino wool – Naturally stain-resistant

We’ll show you just how easy it is to care for natural clothing. With a little love, your favorite pieces will stay with you for years to come, maybe even for generations.

Caring for and washing woollen clothing correctly

For us, sustainability in natural fashion does not begin with the finished garment – it starts with the fibre. And it continues: with proper care, small everyday actions and repairs when necessary.

That is why this area is so important to us at ENGEL. Here you will find our answers to your most frequently asked questions. Well-founded, practical and with a wealth of experience and love for working with natural fibres.

In it, she explains the differences in a clear and practical way.
