The Australian Wool Board was established in 1936. In 1953 its name was changed to Australian Wool Bureau; in 1963 a reconstituted Australian Wool Board came into being; in 1972 this was succeeded by the Australian Wool Corporation. For ease of reference, I will refer to the body as the Wool Board.

The International Wool Secretariat was established in 1937, with headquarters in London, comprising initially representatives of the Wool Boards of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The main aims of the Secretariat were to promote wool and to encourage the introduction of new processing techniques to the manufacturing industry as they became available.
