Oregon Shepherd: Sustainable Insulation

Here in Oregon’s lush Willamette Valley, there’s a special passion for all things green.  And while we love the color, we’re particularly dedicated to sustainability and reducing our impact on the planet’s delicate ecosystem.  So in 2003, we started Oregon Shepherd.

Adhering to strict eco-friendly practices from start to finish, Oregon Shepherd works to enhance and expand the traditional markets for wool products, especially making use of the lower grade and off-color wool, which is typically discarded.  We’ve successfully developed patentable chemical formulations and processes that that produce 100% natural, non-VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emitting, fire-resistant and vermin-proof insulation. We’ve worked hard, and we’re extremely proud of the results.  In fact, no other insulation product in the world can make these claims!
