Australian Merino Face Masks... Naturally! | Merino Country

Australian Merino Face Masks... Naturally!

With so many requests from our customers for a Face Mask made out of our 100% Australian Merino fabric, we got to work and now have in production a reusable, natural face mask, our 100% Merino Face Mask.

We wear Merino wool garments for the same reason sheep grow it... to protect us from the elements. Each minute fibre is made from interlocking proteins called keratins - the same proteins that act as a protective outer layer on our own skin. This gives wool the unique ability to work like a second skin - in total harmony with our own body's protection mechanisms.

Please note this is NOT a P2 mask or surgical mask. 

 

 

100% Australian Merino Wool Face Mask

  • 3 Layers of soft Merino fabric 
  • Covered Rubber for firm fit to the face
  • Adjustable Straps that tie at the back of the head for comfort & fit
  • Washable & Reusable
  • Moisture wicking - no sweat, no smell
  • SPF 50+
  • Made in Australia from Australian Merino

 

The Merino jersey fabric we produce is unique to Merino Country with our own specifications and finishing of the fabric that makes it different from other Merino fabrics. Developed for comfort, durability and performance - our products are ideal for work, travel and play... Naturally!

Combine the unique structure of our fabric with the natural properties of wool and it's only natural that we would use it in a face mask. Merino wool is truly an amazing fibre and its' complex chemical structure is what allows it to have so many inherent benefits.

  • Just arrived and very impressed so I bought one for my dad (who was a sheep farmer) in Victoria. Very comfy, light and easy to wear. Congrats on Australian Made 🇳🇿

  • Dear Kerrie I was so excited to listen to you speak on the ABC this AM, regards your company & how it came about and how it has evolved with the virus. I rang my sister as she loves making garments to contact you. Just a suggestion maybe she could train people to do the sewing as she is retired. Well done for your foresight & drive to reopen very good quality manufacturing in this country, which is so badly needed. Ann Dowds

  • I saw the ABC’s Landline program and decided to order the face masks from Kerrie while supporting an Aussie at the same time. The trust in products that were Australian and Australian made was so important to us. I received our masks yesterday, very quick delivery and indeed the quality of the materials and workmanship are a standout. You can just see how beautifully they are made. And seeing that green and yellow, ‘Australian Made’ on the packaging made me so proud – proud of Kerrie and her business and her dreams and proud to be an Australian. The personalised, hand written, ‘Thank you’ and ‘Cheers‘ from Kerrie was also truly appreciated. Thank you Kerrie for these amazing masks!

  • I purchased three masks in April. One I sent to my son in Melbourne. He loves the mask for the barrier it provides, but also because it keeps his face warm as he walks 20 mins to work and home every day in the cool weather there. He is constantly being asked where he got the mask and is referring his friends to your website. Thank you for this wonderful quality product. It is a great proactive response to what is let’s face it, a pretty weird time for us all. Keep up the good work.
