"Felt" is a textile structure composed entirely of fibres physically interlocked and consolidated by the utilization of mechanical work, chemical action and moisture without the use of weaving, knitting, stitching, thermal bonding or adhesives. It is composed entirely of any one or a combination of new or recycled wool fibres mixed with one or more man-made fibres.
Wool Felt is a remarkable material possibly the oldest textile fabric known to civilized world and is practically used in every industry.
Over 150 years of continuous industrial development has demonstrated the versatility of pressed wool felt as a material that has far surpassed any other textile material in the depth and breadth of its applications.
Being made of natural fibres, Wool Felt is not only an Eco-friendly and Bio-degradable product, but also referred to as the only solution for various intricate applications.
