Ironing felts - Embossing felts for tanneries. During the ironing and embossing through feed process, the hide is conveyed on the felt and then goes through the cylinder under high pressure in order to provide the final look and touch to the skin.

DOLLFUS & MULLER ironing and embossing felts are designed to avoid any risk of folds or non homogeneous embossing.
