Anti‐shrinkage procedures based on the deposition of Hercosett on untreated wool fibres combined with either the use of an amphoteric surfactant or mixed micelles of amphoteric/anionic surfactants are described. Specific molar ratios of the surfactants were found to promote good stability of the bath, giving area felting shrinkage values of the treated fabrics less than 10%.
