Introduction / Purpose
Fur is a natural product that comes from animals. This article explains which animals the fur comes from and why pest control is sometimes necessary.
Key Information
The fur in our assortment comes from animals that have been culled as part of pest control measures. These animals are not specially bred or killed for their pelts, but are part of regulated management measures.
Why is pest control necessary?
Pest control is used when certain animal species:
multiply rapidly
cause damage to nature, agriculture or infrastructure
pose a risk to other animal species or the ecosystem
cause nuisance or unsafe situations for humans and animals
Without management, populations can become unbalanced, leading to food shortages, diseases and habitat degradation. Pest control is designed to restore this balance and limit further damage.
Using the fur from these animals ensures that the material is not wasted, but is utilized in a functional way.
Practical Tips / Application
Expect natural variations in colour, structure and thickness of the fur.
Small irregularities are part of using a natural product.
Handle fur carefully according to maintenance advice to preserve quality.
Conclusion
The fur in our assortment is a by-product of necessary pest control. By using this material, it gains a functional application and prevents waste of natural resources.
