I have also worked with the International Wool Secretariat and New Zealand Research Organization. Also many studies have been made on wool carpets and the fibers that are shed, by independent councils. The studies and research, not to mention thousands of years in the use of wool throughout history, have answered many of the misconceptions regarding wool and allergies. I have a concise, informative piece on the issue of wool as a non-allergen fiber. Please read my blog on "Allergic Reactions to Wool Carpets and Rugs?" addressing allergy issues. I hope that this will answer some of your concerns regarding wool carpet and rug fiber shedding.
