WHAT IS FELT

Wool felt is a non-woven material and is made from sheep's wool or virgin wool. It is considered one of the oldest materials in the history of mankind. The combination of moisture, heat and friction causes the wool to felt, compact and compress. This creates the uniformly flat fabric without a woven structure known as wool felt.

Wool felt is completely biodegradable and therefore protects the environment. Felt has excellent sound-absorbing properties that improve room acoustics by reducing reverberation and increasing speech intelligibility. It regulates humidity indoors and thus ensures a healthy and pleasant indoor climate by absorbing excess moisture and releasing it again when the air is dry. Felt binds and neutralizes odours, which is particularly beneficial in rooms with high noise emissions. The breathable structure of felt supports air circulation and contributes to temperature regulation. Felt is naturally water-repellent and dirt-resistant, which makes it easy to care for and clean. These properties make it ideal for high-traffic areas such as offices and public buildings. Wool felt acts as a natural insulator and helps to keep interiors warm in winter and cool in summer, helping to save energy. It is flame retardant and meets many safety standards, making it a safe material for interior design. Felt does not become electrostatically charged, making it ideal for use in electronically sensitive areas.

PROPERTIES OF WOOL FELT

A NATURAL CYCLE

its useful life, felt can be recycled without any negative environmental impact. People who use felt thus support a closed material cycle and contribute to reducing waste and pollution.

A natural cycle

Felt is a prime example of a material that fits seamlessly into the natural cycle. It is made from renewable resources and is fully compostable, leaving no long-term waste. The production of felt often makes use of residual fibers that would otherwise be waste, increasing resource efficiency. At the end of its useful life, felt can be recycled without any negative environmental impact. People who use felt thus support a closed material cycle and contribute to reducing waste and pollution.

ACOUSTIC IMPROVEMENT

and public buildings where a quiet and productive atmosphere is crucial. Architects and interior designers use felt to create acoustically optimized spaces that improve the comfort and sense of space for those present.

Acoustic improvement

Felt has excellent sound-absorbing properties, which are particularly appreciated in interior design. The dense fiber structure of felt reduces reverberation and improves speech intelligibility, which contributes to more pleasant acoustics. This is particularly important in offices, living spaces and public buildings, where a quiet and productive atmosphere is crucial. Architects and interior designers use felt to create acoustically optimized spaces that improve the comfort and sense of space for those present.

A PLEASANT ROOM CLIMATE

and interior decorators can integrate felt into their designs to create feel-good spaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional.

Ensures a pleasant indoor climate

Felt regulates humidity indoors and thus contributes to a pleasant indoor climate. Its ability to absorb excess moisture and release it again when the air is dry ensures a balanced level of humidity. This contributes to a healthy and pleasant indoor climate, which promotes the well-being of the occupants. Architects and interior decorators can integrate felt into their designs to create feel-good spaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional.

FOR NATURAL ODOR CONTROL

Felt has the natural ability to bind and neutralize odours. This property is particularly useful in areas prone to unpleasant odor emissions, such as kitchens, smoking rooms or heavily frequented public areas. Felt can therefore help to ensure fresh and pleasant indoor air. Architects and interior designers ...

use this property to create interiors that not only look good, but are also olfactorily pleasant.

BREATHABLE AND COMFORTABLE

touch and retains its shape even with intensive use, making it a preferred material for high-quality interiors. Many of our living spaces use building materials that release formaldehyde into the air. In his scientific work from 2006, Stefan Thomé was able to show that wool is able to bind various harmful pollutants. The felt material contains the wool protein keratin as well as the substances lysine, tyrosine and tryptophan, which together can absorb pollutants from the air. Wool felt can therefore help to make indoor air healthier and cleaner.

Breathable and comfortable

The breathable structure of felt ensures a high level of comfort by supporting air circulation and thus contributing to better temperature regulation. This breathability makes felt ideal for upholstered furniture and textile surfaces in interiors where comfort and durability are required. Felt is pleasant to the touch and retains its shape even with intensive use, making it a preferred material for high-quality interior furnishings.

Water-repellent and dirtresistant

Felt is naturally water-repellent and dirt-resistant, which makes it much easier to care for and clean. These properties make felt a practical choice for use in high-traffic areas such as corridors, offices or public buildings. Felt products are durable and retain their aesthetic and functional properties over time, making them a cost-effective choice for construction and renovation projects.

REGULATES THE TEMPERATURE

saving and comfort. Architects and planners can use felt to design environmentally friendly and energy-efficient buildings that meet the needs of their users.

Regulates the temperature

Felt acts as a natural insulator and helps to regulate the temperature indoors. It keeps rooms warm in winter and cool in summer, which contributes to increased energy efficiency. These temperature-regulating properties make felt an excellent material for sustainable projects aimed at energy saving and comfort. Architects and planners can use felt to design environmentally friendly and energy-efficient buildings that meet the needs of their users.

NATURALLY FIREPROOF

it a safe material for interior construction. Its fire-retardant properties provide additional protection and safety, especially in public buildings and residential areas. Felt meets many safety standards and is therefore an excellent choice for applications where fire safety plays an important role.

Naturally fireproof

Wool, as a natural fiber, has a high heat resistance. Even with intense heat, it does not ignite, but starts to char at around 320°C. Due to the density of the felt, very little oxygen reaches the wool, which also slows down combustion.
Wool felt is considered fireproof and is naturally flame retardant, making it a safe material for interior fittings. Its fire-retardant properties provide additional protection and safety, especially in public buildings and residential areas. Felt meets many safety standards and is therefore an excellent choice for applications where fire safety plays an important role.
