Supplied 27” wide on an 11mtr roll, this soft layered felt is ideal for upholsterers, furniture restorers and trade workshops that need a fuller padding layer for arms, backs and seats.

What Is Soft Layered Wool Felt?

Soft layered wool felt is an upholstery padding made from layers of fibre formed into a soft, workable felt. Unlike firm needled felt, which is mainly used where structure and spring protection are required, soft layered felt is better suited to comfort, smoothing and shaping.

This 1200 gram version provides a heavier, fuller layer than the 750 gram option, making it useful where the upholstery build-up needs extra body and a more substantial feel.

Common Uses for Soft Layered Upholstery Felt

Soft layered felt is used across traditional upholstery work where the job needs a softer padding layer over hair or other coarser fillings.

Common uses include:

Upholstery padding over hair

Padding arms, backs and seats

Traditional upholstery restoration

Furniture repair and refurbishment

Softening and smoothing upholstery build-ups

Final padding layers beneath fabric

Layering over firmer or coarser fillings

Chair, sofa and settee upholstery work

1200 Gram Felt for a Fuller Upholstery Build-Up

The main advantage of this 1200 gram soft layered felt is the extra body it provides. It is heavier than the 750 gram version, making it suitable for jobs where more padding, shape or coverage is needed.

It can be used on arms, backs and seats where a lighter felt may not provide enough fullness. This makes it a strong choice for traditional upholstery work where the build-up of layers is what creates the final shape, comfort and finish.

Soft Layered Felt for Use Over Hair

One of the main uses for this soft layered wool felt is as a padding layer over hair. In traditional upholstery, hair provides body, resilience and shape, but it needs to be properly covered before the final upholstery materials are applied.

This 1200 gram layered felt helps create a smoother barrier over hair, reducing the chance of coarse fibres affecting the finished surface. It also adds comfort and helps create a cleaner, more professional finish beneath the fabric.

27” Wide Upholstery Felt on an 11mtr Roll

Made from Recycled Materials

This soft layered wool felt is manufactured from recycled materials, making it a sensible choice for upholstery work where practicality, value and material efficiency matter.

For trade users, it provides a cost-effective padding layer that can be used across furniture repairs, restoration work, traditional upholstery and general workshop jobs.

Why Choose 1200 Gram Soft Layered Felt?

Choose 1200 gram soft layered felt when the job needs more body, softness and coverage than a lighter upholstery felt. It is particularly useful higher up in the upholstery build, where smoothing, shaping and comfort matter.

Firm needled felts are better suited to spring protection and harder support areas. Soft layered felt is better suited to arms, backs and seats where a fuller, softer padding layer is required. In plain English, this is the stuff that helps make the finished job feel right, not just look right.

Trade and Workshop Use

Supplied 27” wide on an 11mtr roll and available individually or in 3-roll quantities, this soft layered wool felt is suitable for professional upholsterers, furniture restorers and trade workshops.

It is a useful stock material for traditional upholstery, furniture repair, arm padding, seat padding, back padding and finishing layers over hair or other coarser upholstery fillings.
