Wool pressed felt is manufactured from high quality natural wool fibers which are mechanically pressed using heat, moisture and pressure to achieve a specific wool content, density and thickness. The engineering and manufacturing process is mandated by SAE/ASTM (US Federal Specification C-F-206G) standards which determine a strict set of guidelines and specifications. Wool felts remain unchanged in physical properties as it wears. Wool felts do not ravel or fray. Also, highly absorbent, wool pressed felts remain uninjured by oil saturation. All of our SAE/ASTM wool felts are ROHS compliant and can be certified to automotive specification FMVSS-302 (fire resistant).
Pressed wool felts typically are categorized into two groups: Virgin pressed wool (off white or crème color) and a pressed reprocessed version (industrial grey). Each group will have varying levels of density from hard, medium to soft characteristics with competitive price points to meet your most immediate needs. Our pressed wool felts are sold by the yard and can be complimented with value added converting like adhesive coating, slitting and die cutting.
