A little history of felt production

Felt is the same felt, produced according to the same principle, only of better quality, thinner and more elastic, therefore it is more widespread in the manufacture of hats, it differs in long pile, velor, short pile, suede, smooth. In the seventeenth century, rabbit, hare and beaver wool served as raw materials, elasticity was achieved with a special chemical solution, which enhanced the aesthetic and physical properties. Beaver hats are light, warm, waterproof, retain their shape for a long time, therefore they were considered a luxury, they spoke about the position of the owner in society.

Over time, due to the extermination of beavers and other animals, they began to look for cheaper wool additives and use mercury in the production of felt, which improved the quality of the material. From the end of the eighteenth to the beginning of the nineteenth century, the lives of master hatters were in danger, and the production itself became dangerous to others. Nowadays, all production processes are mechanized and the tailoring of products is almost contactless. The material obtained by deboning natural animal wool (basic sheepskin), under steam pressure and mechanical action, the fibers interlock, intertwine with shrinkage up to eighty percent, which increases its strength and wear resistance. The non-woven material is comfortable to use, retains heat and shape well, is pliable in processing, and is well dyed, which contributes to its widespread use.
