Bowron Rugs
The Bowron name has been synonymous with the world’s finest sheepskin products for over 100 years, and we stock only the ‘Gold Star’ grade of rug – the top of the range.
Bowron rugs are made exclusively from New Zealand sheepskins and are processed here at their tannery in our beautiful South Island. Rugs are then finished and made ready for sale here and overseas.
Their exacting standards commit them to conducting their business in an environmentally sensitive manner and to producing products that are high quality, sustainable and safe.
- Easy to care for and exceptionally long lasting, Bowron sheepskin rugs are as soft as a cloud and are available as single rugs or as multiple skins.
- Bowron use specifically chosen, non-persistent, biodegradable chrome free chemicals that meet the requirements of REACH standards. This relates to all chemicals and dyes used throughout the process.
Sheepskin Care and Storage
Sheepskin is incredibly easy to care for, it has an inherent natural ability to repel dirt and liquid.
A regular vacuum using the standard nozzle (only) or shaking the rug is generally all that is required to keep your sheepskin clean.
Your product may have been tightly packaged for shipping and so the wool may appear flattened. Wool fibers are very resilient and will bounce back to their original soft, fluffy appearance with a vigorous shake. Lay the skin flat and any fold marks will disappear naturally after a few days.
In the event further cleaning is required then please follow these specific guidelines
Spot Cleaning
– For small soiled areas, moisten a soft cloth with luke warm water
– Clean affected area using gentle circular motions, DO NOT rub
– If cleaning agent required, use mild wool detergent, non alkaline, enzyme and bleach free e.g. Ecostore Wool Wash
– Remove excess moisture with dry cloth
– Allow to dry and gently brush with Carding brush
Baby Cocoon Care: Shake or regular vacuum will keep baby’s cocoon clean. Any small spills can be easily spot cleaned, if further washing required we recommend Dryclean only.

I ordered the stone Bowron sheepskin rug to be delivered to the Gold Coast. It was a beautiful product but, devastatingly, the colour was not right for the couch I purchased it for. A return was organised and my credit card was refunded within a week. The customer service was outstanding. I would not hesitate to order from this company again.

Thanks for the beautiful products.
My boxer despite having his own sheepskin pet rug, has decided to take over mine as well! The pelt initially drove him wild smell wise, but it looks like he reckons the rug is just too dreamy to destroy!
Looks like I will be ordering a Quattro soon!

Dear Ecowool,
Your beautiful Black Sheepskin Rug arrived by our morning post on Tuesday. Many thanks for sending it so promptly It is quite perfect for my husband, and I feel he will derive a great deal of comfort from it.
I was very intrigued by the fleece itself – quite different from any sheepskin I have come across in Australia. More like a pelt, if I can put it like that, but much thicker, I prefer this one.
I am absolutely delighted with what you have sent me as well as your prompt response in posting.
I shall not hesitate to recommend Ecowool for both your excellent product and prompt helpful service.
With my sincere thanks,
Camilla from Australia.
