WORKING ON BEHALF OF OUR MEMBERS
Our mission is to drive sustainable demand for British wool to maximise returns for our members.
FAQs
Once your wool is delivered to a British Wool depot or collection site, it is graded by experienced graders to assess quality and type. The graded wool is then sorted, baled, and sold at auction to manufacturers and buyers across various industries, ensuring you receive a fair market price for your wool.
To register as a British Wool producer, you need to complete our online registration form or contact your local British Wool depot. Once registered, you’ll receive a unique registration number and guidance on preparing your wool for collection or delivery.
British Wool does not buy the wool directly, it is auctioned on behalf of our members throughout the year.
At the end of October each year, 90% of the wool has been received by depots, but only 25% of the clip will have been auctioned. Therefore, the value of the wool is not known until all the wool has been sold.
