The Lanolin Collection Process
The Muster
Around Springtime every year in New Zealand, farmers muster their sheep from the surrounding paddocks, hills and mountains, droving them to the local woolshed for shearing. Shearing - the process of removing the wool with clippers, is a skilled craft which is expertly done without hurting or harming the sheep.Â
The Shear
Once shearing is complete, the sheep are returned to their paddocks to graze, enjoying a much lighter coat for the warmer weather and ready to grow more fine quality wool for the next winter.
The Extraction
Sheep are returned to their paddock. Their wool is sent off to be scoured and lanolin collected, which is then used in Lanocreme skincare products.
