Cable prides itself on achieving the highly coveted Woolmark accreditation, a global benchmark of excellence in the textile industry. The Woolmark logo on Cable’s 100% Australian Merino Wool indicates that these products contain 100% pure new wool and meet a range of performance measures.
Discovering the Woolmark Difference
In the world of textiles, few materials match the versatility, comfort, and sustainability of wool. Whether it's in fashion, interior design, or outdoor gear, wool stands out for its natural properties and enduring appeal. However, with the growing concern for authenticity and quality in products, consumers are seeking reassurance that the wool they purchase meets certain standards. This is where Woolmark Accreditation plays a crucial role.

Established in 1964, the Woolmark symbol has become synonymous with excellence, signaling to consumers that they are purchasing a product of superior quality and authenticity.
