A good choice for the environment
Wool isn’t just good for you, it’s also a good choice for the environment. We work with carefully selected farmers who take good care of both the animals and the soil. Our clothes are designed in Norway and we own our factory in the EU-member Lithuania. You can be sure that the working conditions in our factory are decent and that we use state-of-the-art equipment. Unlike any synthetic counterpart, your Devold woollen will be gentle on nature while you wear it and, because of wool’s natural, self-cleaning properties, it’ll make for much less laundry than other clothing.
Organic wool
Our quest for merino wool of the highest quality, which meets all our requirements for sustainable wool production, has brought us to Uruguay where we source 100% organic merino wool from a farm where the sheep graze freely on pastures where no pesticides or fertilisers have been used.
The organic merino wool is scoured in Uruguay before it travels via a spinning mill in Europe to our own factory in Europe, where it’s processed by our own craftspeople. Their uncompromising approach to their work and the focus on detail ensure that every Devold garment is of the highest quality.
The journey continues to our test lab in the Sunnmøre Alps, where our clothes are tested to withstand the harsh West Norwegian climate. But it all starts with our designers and product developers, who are constantly pushing the limits of how wool can be used. They create products that have been manufactured both to be at one with nature and to withstand its rough and tumble.
