Join the movement towards sustainable textiles. Whether you’re a designer, manufacturer, or industry innovator, incorporating alpaca fiber into your production means embracing ethical sourcing, quality, and environmental responsibility.

Step-01

Alpacas are gentle with the land

They graze lightly without uprooting plants, preserving vegetation and soil integrity. Their padded feet prevent damage to pasture, unlike the sharp hooves of other animals. Living at altitudes above 3,800 meters, they thrive in areas unsuited for agriculture, relying on natural water sources and leaving farming lands untouched. Compared to other fiber-producing animals, alpacas are remarkably efficient—requiring less food and offering a more sustainable alternative for high-quality textile production.

Step-02

Alpacas Save Energy

With over 22 natural shades, it offers a rich color palette without the need for dyeing, saving water, energy, and chemicals. Its low grease content allows for gentle processing, and its remarkable thermal and flame-resistant properties make it ideal for cozy, long-lasting home goods. Alpaca’s beauty lies not only in its texture, but in its quiet respect for the planet.

Step-03

Alpacas Have History

Domesticated over 5,000 years ago, they’ve been woven into the history of ancient Peruvians, not just as a source of fiber, but as a symbol of status, exchange, and tradition. Despite surviving the hardships of conquest and displacement, alpacas remain vital today, especially for over a million small farmers whose livelihoods and identities are deeply tied to these noble animals. With 80% of the world’s alpaca population thriving in Peru’s highlands, their story is one of resilience and rootedness.

Step-04

Products Made from Alpaca Fiber Are Unique

Alpaca fiber offers an extraordinary balance of beauty, performance, and comfort. Its natural fineness, from 18 to over 35 microns, enables a wide variety of products, from delicate garments to ultra-warm blankets. With exceptional softness, moisture absorption, and resistance to wear, alpaca stands out for its luxurious feel and long-lasting durability. Whether facing humidity or harsh climates, it insulates with grace, doesn’t retain dampness, and even resists fire, making it one of the most versatile and high-performing natural fibers available.
