Felt; whether or not impregnated, coated, covered or laminated

In plain English

This category covers felt materials, including those that have been treated, coated, covered, or laminated. The classification separates needleloom felt and stitch-bonded fibre fabrics from other types. Other felts are divided based on whether they are made of wool or fine animal hair, or made of other textile materials. Additionally, non-wool and non-fine-hair felts are distinguished by whether they have been impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated.
