Fibre Certifications & Trust Marks

Our certifications and trustmarks offer a transparent view into these standards, giving you confidence in how and where your clothing is made. Each one reflects a commitment to responsible materials, ethical practices, and long-term quality—so you can wear with clarity and trust.

Glenthorne Station

Just over an hour from our Christchurch headquarters is Glenthorne Station, a 25,090 hectare sheep and cattle station nestled on the shores of Lake Coleridge. Glenthorne has been a highly valued supply chain partner and the source of 90% of the merino wool we use in our collections. Their landscape is a sweeping mix of high-country mountains, developed foothills, and intensive flats — home to some 7,000 merino sheep roaming freely across the land.

Regenerative Farming

We work with fibre suppliers who give back more than they take. Regenerative farming takes a whole-systems approach to land stewardship, building healthy soil to boost biodiversity and productivity over time, while ensuring animals live a genuinely good life. Less extracting, more restoring.

Animal Welfare

Being sentient means the animals that provide our fibres experience a range of feelings that matter to their well-being, both daily and over their lifetime. Untouched World is fully committed to sourcing from producers who prioritise the highest standards of animal welfare.

We see our role as partners and consumers as setting a higher standard for the industry, going beyond minimum legal requirements to ensure our animals truly have ‘A Good Life.’
