Woolen Mills
Woolen mills are factories that process raw wool into finished textile products. They typically involve several stages, including cleaning, carding, spinning, and weaving. The end products can range from blankets and clothing to carpets and upholstery fabrics. Woolen mills have played a significant role in the textile industry, especially in regions with abundant sheep farming.
Historically, many woolen mills were established during the Industrial Revolution, leading to increased production and accessibility of woolen goods. Today, some woolen mills still operate using traditional methods, while others have adopted modern technology to enhance efficiency. The wool industry continues to be important for both economic and cultural reasons.
