Inventor of the sheepskin cover D.Amarjargal said that three years ago she planned to make roof ring and wall covers with sheepskin. Since she launched the work last November, Amarjargal has made covers for roof ring and wall for two middle-sized ger A middle-sized roof ring cover is made with 100 sheepskins while a wall cover is made with 20.

“Since the product is not made for wearing like clothes, there is no need to over flatten the sheepskin. It is enough to let the sheepskin soak in ant acid and flatten out the sheepskin using a setting out machine. Sheepskin cover has advantages including warm and lighter than felt. Moreover, it doesn’t attract moths owing to the fact that it is produced by soaking in ant acid.”, the producer noted.
