Uniting Sutherland Felt Co.’s cutting-edge solutions with Lumetta’s architectural design expertise and multi-vendor marketplace, brings infinite possibilities and scalability.

More About Sutherland Felt Co.'s Capabilties
Felt is an excellent material for architectural applications. Sutherland Felt is the nation’s leader in supplying architects, contractors, and designers with industrial wool or custom dyed felt. Wool felt’s sound deadening, acoustical dampening, and aesthetic properties make it an excellent source for architectural applications. Our 100% grey and/or custom dyed felt wool felt has been used in major HQ installations as ceiling and wall covers. Many types of felt can be used for these types of applications but wool felt is most prevalent. Because our felt is 100% natural, it is used in many LEED certified projects.
