Melin Tregwynt launch 100% Welsh wool products

Melin Tregwynt, a working mill in Permbrokeshire, providing Welsh blankets, throws, cushion, fabrics and much more, has launched a limited-edition collection made from 100% Welsh wool - marking a significant milestone in the revival of Wales’ historic wool industry.

The collection features double cloth throws, fringed blankets and cushions and each product is available in three iconic Melin Tregwynt patterns in coordinating colourways.

The launch of the products follows the success of the Gwnaed  Gwlan/Made With Wool project and the unveiling of a Welsh Wool logo, all of which holds the collective aim of rebuilding a commercial supply chain for Welsh-grown wool.

Sophia Watts, Head of Textiles Design & Sustainability Coordinator at Melin Tregwynt, said: “The Welsh woollen industry and weaving in Wales is the root of our rural business and so we are honoured to have been a part of this project. Creating a route to commercially source Welsh-grown wool helps to revitalise this industry and protect the rural economy. As an EOT, being able to support and sustain rural skills, communities, and jobs through this supply chain is important for our business.”

Graham Clark, Director of Marketing at British Wool, said: “It’s great to see this exciting new collection, exclusively using Welsh wool, come to market. Melin Tregwynt is the first business to embrace the Welsh wool yarn developed by the Gwnaed  Gwlan/Made With Wool project.

“This commitment not only supports our local farmers but also underpins the long-term sustainability of our local wool industry. We hope this initiative inspires more local businesses to use Welsh wool in their products and in turn increase returns to local farmers for their wool.”
