Wool sales catalogue 15/25
published 04 Dec 2025

The offering consisted of good quality individual clips, but only 45% of the merino wool offered was certified as sustainable.

Due to the fact that 1 240 bales were withdrawn during the sale to accommodate shipping volumes in December, a lower sales clearance of 86,7% was recorded.

The market closed on a very positive note, despite the stronger ZAR against the US$.

The all-merino indicator jumped 3,2% to close on R212,02 p/kg and the certified indicator increased by 2,1% to close on R215,81 pkg.

A new record highest price of R435,59 p/kg (clean) (R306,00 p/kg greasy) was paid for a single bale lot of 14,1-micron merino fleece wool, the finest bale offered yet on auction.

The Australian market also delivered good results this week and increased by 1,1% (AU$), from their previous sale held on Wednesday, 26 November.

The major buyers on this week's sale were BKB Pinnacle Fibres (2 713), Tianyu SA (1 634), Standard Wool SA (1 405) and G Modiano SA (1 374).

The next sale will be held on 7 January 2026 when approximately 5 417 bales will be on offer.
