All the major ironer manufacturers in the world use Valmet Laundry Products needled felts to cover their ironer rolls. In our two turn felts we use special synthetic fibers such as polyester, Meta Aramid, PTFE, PPS, etc. 

Most of the major manufacturers of flatwork ironers in the world use Valmet’s needled felts to cover (pad) their ironers. In our felts we use special synthetic fibers such as polyester, Meta Aramid, PTFE, PPS and/or blends of these mentioned fibers.

Installation of the two turn felt can be done in one piece of two turns or can be done in two pieces of one turn half-overlap in each other, depending of the type of heated chest flatwork ironer.

Our range of two turn products covers the need of any ironer on the market: from 400 g/m² to 1300 g/m² and from 1.60 m of width up to 5.00 m of width.

Advantages:

Higher strength and low elongation due to its unique internal scrim design

  • For the polyester clothing:
    • The fiber used has a much higher resistance to hydrolysis (destruction of the polyester fiber because of humidity and heat)
    • The coarser fiber used gives a better grip of the linen and 2 to 3 times higher air permeability, which means a higher suction of the ironer roll and a higher output of the ironer.
  • All our felts are pre-compacted which means the layers of fibers will not separate or loose fibers during working process (high resistance to abrasion).
