According to reports, the famous manufacturer, the Edinburgh Woolen Mill, will be sent to court this week. Earlier, it was said that the company made a false mark of "100% pure cashmere" on the scarf.

The head of the trade standard said that the company's products are actually made from a mixture of cashmere and other materials. The company denied the above statement and made it clear that it would vigorously defend itself.

However, supporters of cashmere goat breeders in China and Mongolia say fraud and false labeling are seriously affecting their efforts and the cashmere industry.

Scott said: "This is an absolute scam. The industry-recognized fact is that there are moral corruptions in certain areas of the cashmere trade." There are reports that 1 million pieces of cashmere clothing won from Chinese companies operating in Rome. It was found to be made from a mixture of hair from animals such as acrylic, viscose and mice.

According to reports, Malcolm Campbell, the general manager of King of Cloths in Fife, Scotland, has more than 40 years of experience in the textile industry. He said: "The total number of cashmere goats in the world is not enough to produce so many cashmere products on the market. The simpler way is to mix acrylic or polyester. Many blends will contain 50% to 60% cashmere. And 40% to 50% of sheep wool or yak hair. It is difficult to check."

According to reports, Campbell, who has been to Chinese cashmere manufacturers, said that those manufacturers use a wool stretching machine to produce finer wool fibers. These fibers are then mixed into cashmere and sold as "100% pure cashmere".
