About cashmere
The best cashmere in the world comes from the highlands of Inner Mongolia, an impenetrable area in Central Asia whose temperature undergoes severe changes throughout the seasons, and between day and night. In order to survive these conditions, Hircus goats develop very thick fur consisting of a coarse outer coat and a fine and soft undercoat. The undercoat is combed at the beginning of the summer season and used in the textile industry. Cardiff Cashmere, through a responsible selection of suppliers, procures the best raw materials on the market here.
Fineness, length and color are carefully assessed when choosing the best batch of cashmere fibres.
The fineness is never more than 15.5 microns, the length never less than 38 mm and the color always the whitest and purest. This is what enables them to produce yarns that have better processing performance, greater resistance to plucking and which have better durability after processing.
