A Few Alpaca Facts Alpaca fiber is one of the world's finest animal fibers and is prized by clothiers and fashion designers worldwide. Alpacas develop a single coat that lacks guard hairs like those found on wool and other animals. Wool has guard hairs (wool itch factor) which are coarser than the soft undercoat that it is designed to protect. Alpaca's single coat is extremely soft and can be worn next to the skin without irritation. Alpaca fibers are semi-hollow; giving Alpaca fiber added insulation value over wool and other fibers. Alpaca's semi-hollow fiber provides a user with more heat retention in cold and cooling dynamics during the hotter seasons.
Alpaca fiber is one of the world’s finest animal fibers. The fiber is extremely soft, warm while lightweight without the normal itch factor found with some sheep wool products. Alpaca fiber is comparable to mohair, cashmere and other rare fibers. The fibers are semi-hollow; giving Alpaca fiber added insulating value over wool.
Alpaca fiber is considered to be hypoallergenic, due to the lack of lanolin (natural body oils) produced by most animals. Removing these other oils, not present in Alpaca fibers, are often washed out with chemicals or harsh soaps.
