Can polyester fiber be laminated with fabric?
Yes, all of our self-supporting fiber qualities can be laminated with fabric or nonwoven to create aesthetic and functional surface layers.
Can polyester fiber be used as a filter?
Yes, we stock polyester-based coarse filters G1–G4 for the HVAC industry and other applications. They can be delivered as a roll or custom-made filter assembly.
Can polyester fiber be used for molded parts?
Yes, several of our fiber qualities – for example REC TF and several needle felt variants – are developed for hot/cold compression molding of acoustic or structural components.
Can you deliver fiber products in customer-specific dimensions?
Yes, we punch, cut and assemble all fiber materials to exact measurements – from small components to large screen walls.
Can you help us choose the right fiber material for our application?
Of course. We guide based on acoustics, fire requirements, weight, formability and durability to find the right fiber solution for each project.
Is polyester fibre environmentally friendly?
Yes, several of our products are made from recycled textile offcuts and recycled fibres. We also offer options blended with natural fibres, such as Echofelt made from hemp.
Is polyester fibre good for sound absorption?
Yes, several of our fibre-based materials – such as Soundfelt® REC, REC White/Grey/Black and Echofelt – are highly effective sound absorbers used in both industrial and office environments.
What are the applications for Soundfelt® REC White, Grey and Black?
These materials are self-supporting sound-absorbing panels available in a range of colours, suitable for offices, wall panelling, partition walls and interiors where design and acoustics need to be combined. All are fire-rated in accordance with FMVSS 302.
What characterizes Hordfelt® FR?
Hordfelt® FR is a fire-retardant treated polyester fiber product that is stiff, self-supporting and designed for sound reduction. It is available in several weight and thickness ranges.
What fire classes are there for polyester fibre-based materials?
Our products can comply with FMVSS 302, EN 13501-1 B-s1,d0, UL 94 and other fire safety requirements, depending on the grade.
What is Airfelt TK (AFTK) and when is it suitable?
Airfelt TK is a stable fibre material with a non-woven surface, suitable for sound-absorbing panels, technical textile components and thermoforming.
What is Echofelt used for?
Echofelt is an environmentally friendly needlepunched fiber product made from hemp and polyester. It is used as a sound absorber, in compression molding, laminated components and technical textile solutions.
What is needle-punched polyester fibre?
Needle-punched felt is a mouldable and strong polyester fibre material that we use in moulding, interior design, anti-squeak protection and technical applications. It is available in soft and stiff varieties and can achieve high grammages.
What is polyester fibre and what is it used for?
Polyester fibre is a versatile fibre material available in a range of stiffnesses and thicknesses. We use this material in sound absorbers, filtration, padding, moulding and partition walls.
What is Porofib NF?
Porofib NF is a sound-absorbing mat made from recycled textiles, commonly used in the automotive industry. It is fully recyclable and contains no phenolic resins.
What is Soundfelt® LW and when is it used?
Soundfelt® LW is a lightweight sound-absorbing material offering excellent acoustic performance in applications where total weight is a critical factor – for example, in vehicles or suspended acoustic panels.
What is Soundfelt® REC?
Soundfelt® REC is our well-known recycled fibre material, which is self-supporting and highly sound-absorbent. It is manufactured from industrial textile waste and polyester fibre.
What is the difference between recycled textile fibres and polyester fibres?
Recycled textile fibres provide a softer and more varied texture, whilst polyester fibres offer stability and mouldability. In many products, we combine both to achieve the right level of sound reduction and load-bearing capacity.
When should you use Soundfelt® REC TF?
REC TF is used in hot/cold compression molding of sound absorbers and can be laminated with fabric, tape and structure-borne sound absorbing materials. It is an excellent material for acoustic solutions in e.g. offices and vehicles.
Which industries use polyester fibre from Horda Stans?
The automotive industry, HVAC, the furniture industry, offices, construction, energy and anyone who requires sound absorption, filtration, padding or moulded textiles.
