Re: Heavy Wool felts for paper conservation laboratory

[R M <roisinmiles@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello

 

I know that this supplier is not in the United States but I have had some dealings with them - Naish Felts - and I know that they do make 100% wool non-woven felt though I don't know whether it would be supplied as a special order or if they hold it in stock.

Hope this is of some help.

We are seeking a source for 100% wool non-woven felts.  The felts

would be used for drying works on paper and photographs.  My

previous source stopped selling 100% wool.  Does anybody have a

source in, preferably, but not limited to the USA?  I found some

sources listed on Google in Turkey and India, but am a little

nervous about out of country purchases.
