A New Zealand wool story
Wool is one of Aotearoa’s most valuable natural resources. Strong, renewable, breathable — and capable of providing exceptional comfort and insulation in modern homes and commercial spaces.Wool Technologies was founded on a simple belief: New Zealand wool can outperform synthetic alternatives when it’s crafted with care and engineered with purpose. That belief continues to guide everything we make.
Built on decades of wool expertise
Our team has deep experience in wool science, felt production, and textile engineering. That expertise shows in every roll of Lanalay:
- Tested to NZ and Australian standards
- Engineered for softness, warmth & acoustic performance
- Naturally fire-resistant
- Fully recyclable and biodegradable
- Proven performance in both residential and commercial installations
We’re proud to help push New Zealand wool forward — and to offer a natural alternative that genuinely performs.
Continuing the Lanalay legacy
Lanalay was originally conceived by wool pioneer Peter Crone, whose vision was to showcase the strength, comfort, and environmental value of NZ strong-wool. Today,Wool Technologies Ltd and Lanalay Distributors Ltd continue that mission — making Lanalay available to retailers, architects, and homeowners across New Zealand.
Our commitment
We’re here to deliver better flooring solutions — natural, sustainable, and made to last. From raw wool to finished product, every step is designed with comfort, performance, and environmental responsibility in mind.
