Sažetak
Croatian domestic wool is not used in traditional textile industry as raw material since the overall perception is that it is too coarse for fine wool products, and because of that it is mostly disposed in the environment regardless of its limited capacity to accept such kind of waste. In order to avoid harmful influence of domestic wool on the land and to revive interest in it, wide- ranging field and laboratory investigations were started at the Faculty of Textile Technology, University of Zagreb. The obtained results showed that majority of Croatian domestic wool (e.g. wool of the predominant sheep breed, so called Pramenka), with a proper clip preparations and environmentally friendly scouring, can be used not only as replacement for some imported coarser carpet wool, but also as highly capable sorption material, assuring it rightful place in Croatian economy and future sustainable development.
