Medical Sheepskin Rugs
UGG Australia offers medical sheepskin rugs that are Australian Tanned, Made & Owned at our Roman Tannery in Melbourne, using dense wool for comfort and airflow. The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), together with local industry experts, has helped define the standards behind our Australian Medical Sheepskins today.
How Medical Sheepskins Ease Pressure
The pile on our medical sheepskins holds about 4,000 to 6,000 wool fibres in every square centimetre. This dense bed of fibres spreads your body weight and reduces pressure on bony areas. CSIRO studies show pressure can drop by more than 50% when lying on an Australian Medical Sheepskin instead of a standard mattress.
Sourced Responsibly, Finished With Care
All hides are by-products of farming and sourced from local properties, then tanned using eco-minded methods at our Roman Tannery in Melbourne. Standard quality rugs may have small quirks in fibre length or shape, but you still get the same supportive wool pile found across our medical sheepskin rugs.
