Architectural Felt
Felt is an excellent material for architectural applications. Sutherland Felt is the nation’s leader in supplying architects, contractors, and designers with architectural felt panels, industrial wool, and custom dyed felt. Wool felt’s sound deadening, acoustical dampening, and aesthetic properties make it an excellent choice for architectural applications.
SAE Wool Felt
100% wool is available in natural (cream) Australian/New Zealand wool and grey from the South America country of Uruguay (Uruguay has flock of more than 6.4 million sheep!). All SAE grades, thickness and densities are in stock. Sutherland has the lowest pressed wool prices in North America. Material is sold by the yard, slit to width, or as cut parts.
Gerber CNC Cutting
Sutherland Felt Company has added two high tech computerized Gerber Paragon CNC cutting systems that can create custom parts in minutes. These are dieless knife cutting tables used for cutting soft and semi-rigid materials. They use an oscillating knife CNC cutter that operates on AutoCAD files. This means that large and complex designs can easily be input and stored. This system utilizes sophisticated nesting software, which optimizes material yield, saving both money and time. The cutting surface is a high tech bristle-belt conveyor system, allowing us to cut panels up to 72″ wide by an unlimited length. This is ideal for wall panels, hanging architectural panels, and other custom cut designs.
