Sustainability at the heart of Lanalay
Better for your home, better for the planet, better for NZ wool growers.
Lanalay exists because New Zealand wool deserves to be used in ways that are good for people, good for homes, and good for the planet. Every roll is made from 100% natural, renewable NZ strong-wool — sourced responsibly and transformed in Christchurch by Wool Technologies Ltd. Wool isn’t just a flooring choice. It’s a sustainable story with real environmental benefits built in.
Naturally renewable & traceable
Wool is one of New Zealand’s most renewable resources.
Unlike synthetic underlays made from petrochemical materials, Lanalay begins with locally grown wool, shorn from sheep that naturally regrow their fleece year after year.
- Sourced from New Zealand sheep farms
- Traceable supply chain
- Renewable, breathable, and naturally insulating
Biodegradable and recyclable
Synthetic underlays often end up in landfill for decades.
Lanalay is made from 100% natural wool felt, meaning it:
- Biodegrades naturally at end of life
- Breaks down without releasing harmful microplastics
- Can be fully recycled through Wool Technologies’ recycling processes
A long-lasting product that also leaves a lighter footprint.
Low environmental impact manufacturing
Lanalay is proudly made in Christchurch, keeping production local and emissions lower.
- Manufacturing in New Zealand means:
- Reduced transport emissions
- Ethical, transparent working conditions
- Environmentally responsible production processes
- Shorter, cleaner supply chain
This isn’t just better for the planet — it supports NZ wool growers and local jobs too.
A healthier choice for homes & commercial spaces
Wool contributes to healthier indoor environments. It is:
- Naturally fire-resistant (self-extinguishing fibres)
- Naturally odour-absorbing
- Free from added chemical flame retardants
- Non-toxic and low-VOC
A sustainable option should also be a safe one — especially for homes, schools, workplaces, and high-performance interiors.
Better performance with fewer resources
Sustainability doesn’t mean compromise.
- Lanalay’s natural wool structure provides:
- High thermal insulation (3.65 TOG)
- Excellent acoustic performance
- Long product lifespan through enhanced carpet protection
More performance, less waste.
Our commitment to better flooring choices
Wool Technologies has spent over 30 years working with New Zealand wool to develop cleaner, smarter, more sustainable flooring solutions. Lanalay continues that mission — turning natural wool into a high-performance underlay that supports a better built environment for the future.
