FELT, A MATERIAL TO
DISCOVER
Felt has been used for decades and provides a source of comfort and
well-being. It insulates against the cold, protects floors and carpets
and reduces noises. The French expression ''marcher à pas feutrés'' (feutre
is French for felt), which means to pad along silently, is particularly
appropriate.
PROCESS AND QUALITY CONTROL
Each felt roll is carefully inspected. Samples are taken and compliance
tests (on raw material consistency and components) are conducted. Using
a die-punch and hydraulic press, up to four thicknesses can be cut at
the time. The unique molding secret is what gives the product its
stiffness, water-resistance and shape memory. Then, trained staff
assemble each piece carefully and package the products. Thanks to
automation, daily production is now tripled, going up to 700 pairs a
day.
