05/11/2012
Bradford-based international wool supplier, H. Dawson Wool collaborated with Japanese supplier Nagao Shoji KK to provide wool for artistic installations in Japan, to celebrate Fashion Week and International Wool Week in the Japanese capital’s most fashion-focused area, Ginza, at the end of October.

The wool, sourced from UK sheep, was used to create decorative and eye-catching displays in the Mitsukoshi department store and the Matsuya department store in Ginza.

Later, the wool will be used as insulation in building projects in Japan.

H. Dawson Wool chief executive, Jo Dawson, said: “We are proud to be involved in supplying high-quality wool for many different uses. Not only is wool adaptable, but it is eco-friendly, bio-degradable and the ultimate renewable material.”
