Synthetic Polyester Felt

Polyester felt is a synthetic needle punched felt made from polyester fibers. The polyester fibers are needle punched with a special felting needle, one with small barbs on the end. These barbs pull the polyester into itself, locking together to create a fabric.

Polyester felt is offered in a wide variety of densities and thicknesses to meet your needs. It offers a low cost alternative to wool, and can be used in many industrial and commercial applications. Monarch Textiles manufactures needle punched polyester felt products to meet your specifications.

Benefits of Needle Punched Polyester Felt

Polyester felt products offer a range of benefits. Not only is polyester felt less expensive than wool felt, but needle punched polyester felt also provides resistance to organic acids, mildew, bleaches, and other oxidizing agents that could damage the material.

Other advantages of polyester felts include: 

  • High heat tolerance
  • Resistance to wearing and sunlight
  • Ideal for dry heat applications
  • Excellent for dirt collection
  • Resistance to aging
