Pure Wool Bed Fleece
The Pure Wool Bed Fleece is made from 100% pure new wool and has the unique ability to absorb perspiration and keep the skin dry. This allows the skin to breathe more effectively. Unlike polyester, real wool is exothermic and can absorb up to 33% of its own weight in moisture without feeling damp. Wool will not feel cold even when damp, helping you stay warm and fend off Raynaud's disease even if you sweat at night.
Comfortable Design
Real wool has a remarkable natural resilience and the cover's real lamb's wool high density 1" deep pile distributes pressure more evenly giving immediate comfort. The bed fleece also has a gentle touch that prevents friction burns from abrasive materials. The Bed Fleece can be used on your bed, as well as on chairs, sofas, wheelchairs and any other sitting or lying area.

How Do I Wash My Thorpe Mill Bed Fleece?
We recommend washing your Pressure Relief Bed Fleece on a "wool cycle" when necessary. For best results:
- Wash on a wool cycle with a wool friendly detergent to eliminate any odour or smell before use
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry
- Do not bleach in any circumstances
- For effective drying, we recommend line drying your Pressure Relief Bed Fleece
If your machine does not have a "wool cycle" setting, we recommend washing your fleece using a cold water cycle to prevent damage and loss of material.
