Design Felt

About this material

Felt from Hollands Wol Collectief is made from 100% Dutch wool, processed within Europe. In 2022, sheep’s wool in the Netherlands is a residual product that is hardly used. The collective is changing that by bringing back the local wool supply chain. Their felt is a completely biobased product and its raw material – sheep’s wool – grows back every year. Their wool felt is washed and undyed and is available in beautiful natural tones. No chemical or artificial additives have been added to the wool. It is available in various thicknesses and densities. The material is available in its natural colours: off-white and mixed browns.

Their woollen Design Felt creates a stylish finish for your products. With its natural appearance and acoustic qualities, the firm felt provides a warm atmosphere: a subtle eye-catcher with a sustainable story. The felt is ideal for applications in acoustic solutions or in the finishing of interior products, such as wall panels, furniture or lighting. Because it is dirt repellent by nature, it requires little maintenance. Their felt is relatively dense and therefore maintains its shape well. Their standard products are 5 and 10 mm thick, with a density of 600 and 1200 gr/m2 respectively.

Their Woolfill is thé alternative to synthetic filling materials. It is ideal as a soft intermediate layer, so that products feel soft to the touch. Due to its damping and breathable qualities, it makes a major contribution to comfort when it is used in, for example, furniture. Woolfill has a low density and is therefore flexible and light. The ideal material for protecting upholstery and filling and for giving furniture a fuller appearance. Woolfill is 10 mm thick and has a density of 200 gr/m2.
