Using Recycled Wool Packs
Many growers use recycled wool packs.
Although this will save on the cost of purchasing new packs, bales frequently arrive in stores pressed into sub-standard packs, which may be torn or dirty, or carry several different markings, making clear identification difficult. This creates unnecessary delay in the store.
If you opt to use a recycled pack, please ensure it is repaired, washed and sourced from a reputable pack recycler, who has applied a green packmark stamp identifying it as ‘fit for shipment.’
