Colored felt types are the forms of felt, which is one of the oldest known textile products, produced in different colors. Felt is formed by the intermingling of the wool of various animals such as sheep, goats, camels, rabbits and llamas in an alkaline environment with soap, heat and water. Although it is not known exactly when and where it was first produced and used, it is one of the most basic materials in nomadic life. Felt, which appears in tents, clothes, cushions, beds, rugs and many other items, continues to be preferred in many areas today.
The production of felt is quite enormous. The fibers are brought together and concentrated without being touched, and felt is obtained by pressing them together. Variants made from natural or synthetic fibers are available today. Natural wool felts are obtained by rubbing fibers and lubricating them with water. As it is rubbed by being moved at a ninety-degree angle, the wools intertwine and turn into a pattern. Fiber clusters are activated by continuously moving the fibers back and forth with the help of water. Natural felts, which were used especially on the tops of tents in the past, do not repel water by closing their pores when exposed to rain and snow. In sunny weather, the pores open, allowing the environment to breathe and creating a spacious environment.
The first of the colored felt types is synthetic fabric felt. Synthetic fabric felts are obtained by compressing wool and stand out especially in ornament products prepared by sewing with needles. It has different thicknesses such as 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm and can be classified as thin and thick felts. It is difficult to shape the 3 mm and above thicknesses by hand and is mostly used for floors. It can be in different softness.
