Long winter evenings call for comfort, and nothing beats the pleasure of wrapping yourself in a warm, soft plaid. But do you really know what makes the difference between an ordinary throw and an exceptional one? At Midipy, we choose to work exclusively with high-quality natural materials: French sheep’s wool, Peruvian alpaca wool and French mohair.
These fibers are not only beautiful and pleasant to the touch. They have unique insulating properties, far superior to synthetic materials. Their production, which respects the environment and traditional craftsmanship, is in line with our vision of authentic, responsible luxury. Today, we invite you to explore the secrets of these wools and understand why they are synonymous with warmth and well-being.
The unique properties of natural wools
Thermal insulation, the heart of natural fibers
Natural wools are distinguished by their ability to maintain an ideal body temperature. Unlike synthetic fibers, which conduct heat and often make the cold more perceptible, natural wools trap air in their fibers. This creates a thermal barrier that maintains warmth while wicking away moisture.
Each type of wool has its own structure, but all share this exceptional insulating capacity. Whether you choose sheep’s wool, alpaca or mohair, you’ll enjoy a warm, comfortable experience.
H1: Focus on three exceptional wools
H2: French sheep’s wool: strength for comfort
Sheep’s wool is a timeless classic. At Midipy, we select only the finest French wool from respectful, sustainable farms. This traditional fiber offers considerable advantages for plaids.
Why is it hot?
Sheep’s wool is made up of curly fibers that form millions of tiny air pockets. These air pockets act as a natural insulator, trapping heat while allowing breathability. This means you’ll stay warm without sweating.
A responsible choice
The sheep’s wool used at Midipy comes from French farms committed to sustainable practices. It is biodegradable, renewable, and processed in local workshops to guarantee a reduced carbon footprint.
