Needlepunch / Pre-Felt

This is a commercial product  which has been utilised by hand feltmakers to speed up production . The felt is made by initially carding the fibre into a web. This web is then layered up to a required thickness and passed through a needle bed. Thousands of needles are set in a plate which goes up and down pushing the barbed needles through the fibre. This has the effect of entangling the fibres. At this stage the felt is handleable but not strong. Commercially it then goes for finishing to harden it through the use of pressure and steam.

Prior to the commercial finishing of the felt it can still be worked with by hand feltmakers. Decoration can be added, cutting and shaping can be undertaken and then it can be wet finished in the normal manner.

Essentially it is a time saving product. The three weights which we have in stock cover the needs of most feltmakers. The  merino wool used is compatible with our full range of dyed colours. The Scandinavian wools are of a coarser stronger nature excellent for hard wearing projects.

All the needle felts are suitable for clothing of various thicknesses

All the needle felts are produced for us to our specification for the use of hand feltmakers. We carefully select the fibre quality and manufacturing process to ensure their suitability.
