Segard Masurel South Africa (Pty) Ltd is a leading wool industry specialist operating as part of the global Segard Masurel network. Established in South Africa in 1948, the company has grown to become one of the country's top three wool brokers while maintaining strong international connections through sister operations in Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. The organization operates through three distinct divisions: wool brokering services, international wool trading, and specialty wool tops production for design applications.
The company maintains a vertically integrated business model that provides complete supply chain oversight from farm to first-stage processing. This unique structure enables full traceability programs like Abelusi Wool, which guarantees non-mulesed wool to meet ethical sourcing requirements. Services to woolgrowers include comprehensive clip analysis, market intelligence, and flexible sales options through either auction systems or direct buying channels, all offered without bale handling fees. The Fibre4Design division specifically caters to South Africa's growing home decor sector with premium wool tops.
With over seven decades of industry experience, Segard Masurel South Africa combines traditional wool expertise with modern sustainability initiatives. The company actively promotes responsible farming practices while connecting Southern African woolgrowers with international manufacturers. Its position as both broker and processor allows for exceptional quality control throughout the production chain, serving clients that include topmakers, spinners, and garment producers worldwide. The organization continues to focus on expanding its traceable wool programs and supporting the development of South Africa's textile manufacturing capabilities.
