#157 - Inside Nuyarn’s Revolutionary Spin On Merino Wool with CEO Andy Wynne
Andy Wynne is the CEO of Nuyarn®, a Merino wool textile manufacturer that has reinvented the way Merino is spun so it can unlock its natural characteristics while enhancing performance. The result is a material that can outperform synthetics while maintaining the benefits of natural fiber. Nuyarn® is stronger, stretchier, softer, more abrasion resistant, and as you’ll learn here in a minute, is spun on machines that have a reduced impact on the environment. Long story short, the Merino wool you’re used to wearing wasn’t spun with the rigors of the outdoors in mind, Nuyarn® is, and you’re about to learn all about it.
If you want a solid education on Merino wool and some insight into how and why it’s made the way it is, you’ll enjoy this episode. Andy walks us through his backstory, the development of Nuyarn®, and why it matters.
