The colour palette includes dusty pinks, blushes, plum, red, rust and caramel. Together, these hues add subtle richness, evoking a cosy yet sophisticated environment. Cut-pile and wool loop carpets, sheer fabrics, and materials with barely-there tints further deepen this palette, creating layers that feel luxurious but grounded.Transcendent Pink, a standout hue, serves as an ideal all-rounder for walls and furniture. This enhanced neutral shade exudes a calming presence, appealing across age groups and genders. Transcendent Pink works well for larger surfaces, softening rooms with a serene touch that complements a minimalist aesthetic. In decor, the colour’s understated appeal brings balance, pairing effortlessly with matte finishes and warm woods.Textiles in Nurtured Spaces, like bamboo and wool, lean into natural materials that encourage touch and offer a gentle sheen or matte finish. These materials provide not just warmth, but a depth that can only come from organic fibres. Their subtle sheen, combined with matte details, makes them visually appealing and highly functional for spaces meant for relaxation.<a href="https://www.feltex.com/nz/product-types/wool-carpet">Wool carpet</a>, such as <a href="https://www.feltex.com/nz/products/8th-wonder?colour=hinuera">8th Wonder in 920 Hinuera</a> and <a href="https://www.godfreyhirst.com/nz/products/grand-luxury?colour=greywacke">Godfrey Hirst carpet in Grand Luxury 905 Greywacke</a>, is a perfect fit for Nurtured Spaces, offering natural warmth, resilience, and tactility that invites relaxation.

Made in New Zealand

Milford Sound is often touted as the eighth wonder of the world, but we believe New Zealand is worthy of that title. Whether it’s incredible glaciers or the white stone buildings of Oamaru (coincidentally the place where our beautiful woollen yarn is made), 8th Wonder carpet is inspired by the colours of New Zealand. It’s manufactured using our locally grown wool in a chunky construction that provides both beauty and comfort underfoot. Its sophisticated, honeycomb pattern creates a distinct texture that will not show tracks, making it an inspired selection for high traffic rooms.

Care And Maintenance Guide

The natural beauty of wool stems from the inherent complexity of the fibre itself, evolved to protect sheep, no matter the conditions! That’s why we still wear wool, sleep with wool, insulate with wool and enjoy walking on wool.

Hypoallergenc 
Wool carpets are naturally hypoallergenic making them suitable for those with allergies.

Naturally Insulating 
Wool absorbs moisture in the air and controls humidity for a comfortable environment, making it cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Wool carpet can also absorb and desorb significant quantities of moisture from the air to buffer humidity changes in a room.

Fire Resistance 
Wool carpet has natural flame resistant properties due to its ability to char when burnt and not melt like synthetic fibres. It retains heat and starves its surface of air, extinguishing flames.

Stain Resistance 
The wool fibres natural structure consists of overlapping scales, arranged much like roof shingles. These scales inhibit dirt from adhering to the fibre and help fleck it away.
NOTE: eventually the wool will naturally absorb stains so cleaning is best done immediately.

Biodegradable 
As a natural resource, wool fibre is biodegradable. When wool fibre is disposed of, it will naturally decompose in soil in a matter of months or years, slowly releasing valuable nutrients back into the earth.

Renewable 
A renewable material, wool is shorn from sheep every 9-12 months and produced by sheep consuming a totally renewable resource - grass.

An extension of the Australian Carpet Classification Scheme (ACCS), the Environmental Certification Scheme tests carpet to ensure they meet stringent environmental performance standards such as volatile organic compound emissions, noise reduction and thermal insulation properties (For more information visit: www.carpetinstitute.com.au/environmental/)

As a prerequisite for the ECS program, carpet manufacturers must comply with the Code of Practice for Environmental Management (including performance criteria for raw materials, the manufacturing process, the carpet during its use and at the end of its life).

This stringent program is a Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) approved third party, with Green Star Level 4 certification providing at least a minimum of 7 Green Star points.

Wool carpets are naturally hypoallergenic making them suitable for those with allergies.

Wool carpet is a natural insulator, helping to keep your home warm in winter and cool in summer. Because of wool’s natural inbuilt crimp, air is retained in millions of tiny pockets which provide an insulating effect, thus creating a comfortable environment.

The unique properties of wool react to changes in temperature, absorbing and desorbing significant quantities of moisture from the air to control humidity. In cold, damp conditions (high relative humidity) moisture is absorbed by wool and heat is given off. In warm dry conditions, moisture is released by wool, resulting in a cooling effect.

<h3>We Have Something Exciting to Declare.</h3>

In a marketplace increasingly focused on environmental considerations and issues around sustainability, Godfrey Hirst are incredibly proud to have products officially approved Declare® LBC Red List Free.

The International Living Future Institute (ILFI), and local affiliate the Living Future Institute of Australia (LFIA), are organisations committed to driving sustainable change in the Australian Built environment through the development of leading edge programs, that are designed to radically change our approach to building and construction.

Predicated on creating a healthier built environment, the Declare® program delivers clear, unambiguous information about building material specifications. Participating manufacturers are required to disclose a Product’s entire constituent chemical composition to a threshold of 100-parts-per-million; essentially creating a ‘nutrition’ label of ingredients.

<h3>A product transparency program</h3>

Each Declare® label is compared against a list of worst-inclass materials, better known as the Red List. Chemicals on the Red List can pose an increased risk of:

<ul>
	<li>Polluting the environment</li>
	<li>Bio-accumulation of contaminants progressing up the food chain</li>
	<li>Negative health implications for factory personnel, construction industry workers and building occupants</li>
</ul>

Aware of our role in developing products that homeowners can comfortably put in their homes, we worked with our entire supply chain to identify, source and utilise the healthiest possible manufacturing ingredients. When we were confident our products met the stringent sustainability and toxic free chemical standards, we applied for LFIA Declare® approval.

<h3>The Declare® initiative has three declaration statuses:</h3>

<ul>
	<li>LBC Red List Free - Complete ingredient disclosure revealing ZERO Red List chemicals</li>
	<li>LBC Red List Approved - Where chemicals or product ingredients have no available public information, or a manufacturer is unable to publicly identify an ingredient due to proprietary registration. Products may potentially contain Red List chemicals, which, if identified, will be highlighted in orange</li>
	<li>Declared - This base level of transparency, while revealing a product’s ingredients, will nevertheless contain some Red List ingredients, which will also be highlighted in orange</li>
</ul>

<h3>This label addresses three key concerns:</h3>
<ul>
	<li>Where does a product originate?</li>
	<li>What is it made of?</li>
	<li>Where does it end up at the end of its life?</li>
</ul>

<h3>Effortless Elegance for Every Season</h3>
As the days grow warmer, transform your home into a sanctuary of refined, effortless cool with Feltex designer wool carpets. While often associated with winter warmth, wool’s remarkable versatility makes it the ultimate choice for all seasons. In spring and summer, wool’s natural temperature-regulating properties work to maintain an ideal indoor climate, keeping your space refreshingly cool even on the hottest days. Its breathable fibres promote air circulation, minimising trapped heat and moisture.
Beyond its climate control benefits, wool absorbs humidity to create a fresh, crisp atmosphere, while its hypoallergenic qualities ensure a healthier, purer air quality. Luxuriously soft yet incredibly durable, wool is a timeless option that harmonises with the ebb and flow of the seasons.
With Feltex wool carpets, you’re not just choosing flooring—you’re investing in year-round elegance, comfort, and an 

 environment that feels as good as it looks. Experience the luxury of nature’s finest with the perfect balance of style and function. 

<h3>Natural Insulation and Humidity Control</h3>
Wool is a natural hygroscopic insulator. This means your wool carpet can absorb up to 30% - 40% of its weight in moisture without becoming wet to touch. This reduces the dampness in the air, making your home a drier and healthier place to live.

In cold, damp conditions (high relative humidity) moisture is absorbed by wool and heat is given off. In warm dry conditions, moisture is released by wool, resulting in a cooling effect. How well your carpet insulates largely depends on how much air it can trap. 
Because of wool’s natural inbuilt crimp, air is retained in millions of tiny pockets which provide an insulating effect, thus creating a comfortable environment for you and your family.

<h3>Natural Stain Resistance and Easy Maintenance</h3> 
Wool carpet is a very practical option in terms of cleaning and maintenance. It is naturally resistant to dirt and household stains.
