Manufacturing
wool tops since 1951

From generation to generation
the constant pursuance of updating
our technological equipment has always been led by our strong sense of environmental care.

After WWII the late Textile Engineer Frank Raquet Hosey came from the United States to Uruguay.

Passionate about the wool fibre and motivated by its promising development in Uruguayan soils, Frank begun producing wool tops in 1951 after having found Engraw Export and Import Co S.A. in 1946.

We process Uruguayan mulesing-free wool, produced by healthy sheep and following the best animal husbandry practices available. Our company is pioneer in our country in the use of wind power and we are proud to say that our mill runs almost completely (94%) on renewable energy. Moreover, we treat all effluents in order to protect our environment.

Why are Engraw’s Wool Tops the best allies for your Company? 

Mulesing free wool

The natural development of all farm animals is guaranteed by our country's farming methods.
This creates the perfect habitat for the animal to live a stress-free life, and grants the obtained mulesing-free wool with good length and fibre resistance, resulting in high quality wool tops.

Good Animal Practices

Most uruguayan Growers follow a “Good Animal Practices” guide to ensure that sheep live free from stress and in their natural conditions. The wool we process in our facilities is the result of natural and mulesing free raised sheep and the work of thousands of growers in Uruguay that care about the environment and animal welfare just like you!

Animal Genetics

The Uruguay Wool Secretariat has the sole objective of continuously improving: animal genetics, better practices in flock managing regarding new technologies, technical support for new and old growers and shearing conditions.

Origen by Engraw

We developed our own quality certificate ensuring no mulesing practices were performed, contemplating the environment and the animal’s well-being;
thus offering a high quality product that the final customer can trace to know the origin and story behind its creation.

What we wear can make positive difference to our environment!
