The WoolPass skein mark

One Source
of Wool Truth

Give every bale a WoolPass.

Less paperwork. Better proof. Stronger buyer conversations.
Built with growers, processors and brands to keep New Zealand wool's value visible from farm gate to finished product.

For New Zealand growers

Your wool already has a story. WoolPass helps it travel.

  • Create a digital identity for every bale or lot
  • Carry origin, care and assurance records downstream
  • Reduce repeated paperwork
  • Strengthen proof for buyers
  • Support premium market conversations
  • Keep the grower visible beyond the farm gate

The provenance chain

Five links. One unbroken record.

Every tick on the WoolPass mark is a point where fibre changes hands — and a point where its story is captured, verified, and carried forward. Scroll, and the mark's thread follows the wool.

01 · Farm

It begins on the land

The flock, the practices, the people. The grower records origin, breed, micron and how the wool was produced.

Bound to its origin

Shearing, classing, baling. Each bale is bound to its farm of origin, so nothing is lost when fibre enters the supply chain.

Claims meet evidence

Cleaning and processing are logged against the same batch — with claims (mulesing-free, organic, carbon) linked to real evidence.

The record travels

Yarn and cloth inherit the record. The chain stays connected across mills, countries, and custodians.

Scan it, trace it back

The finished product carries a Digital Product Passport — scan it to trace every step back to the tussock it grew on.

The hands behind the fibre

Wool is made by people, on real land

Behind every passport is a grower who knows their flock, a classer with a trained eye, a scourer, a weaver, a maker. WoolPass makes sure their work is seen, and rewarded.
