Innovation
At Feltex Carpets, we are designers and technical specialist armed with a passion for interiors. We produce a selection of stunning wool carpets designs that are a canvas for meticulous self expression. Our wool carpets comes in a range of colours painstakingly developed from trends and global direction with Australian Interiors in mind, and a variety of decadent design to complement even the most complex of design plans.
Innovation drives our sustainability mission and one such innovation is housed at out Plant 5 tufting facility in North Geelong – a machine that removes remnants of yarn from their cores and re-introduces them into the tufting process.
With similar versions used in the fabric making industry, a core stripping machine is designed specifically for the removal of yarn from its cylindrical cardboard core (also called a cone or tube).
As a fully automated system, it ensures our manufacturing process efficiently uses as much yarn as possible, preventing it from becoming waste and as such, diverting it from landfill.
