Why is Alpaca fiber valuable?
Alpaca fiber is classified as a rare specialty fiber. It is five times
warmer than sheep wool fiber and more luxurious than cashmere. There are
more than 22 natural colors of alpaca fleece. An infinite array of
natural colors can be produced by blending these fibers. Alpaca fiber
can also be easily worked. Alpaca fiber is strong and resilient and has
more thermal capacity than almost any other animal fiber. The fiber
actually contains microscopic air pockets that contribute to the creation
of lightweight apparel with very high insulation value. Alpaca fiber does
not itch as wool often does because it does not contain lanolin and
has a smooth cell structure. |
