Needling

About

In the needling process the curled fibres are linked together by a special technique, normally onto a hessian or PP backing. A thin layer of latex may also be applied for enhanced binding of the fibres. Needled coir and hair are produced in rolls and sheets. Each of our plants in Volendam, China, Poland and the United Kingdom produces its own specialities.

In Havivank we needle a full range of non wovens and fleeces.

Application

Akwamat can be easily placed under your existing cushions or mattresses. The open structure of Akwamat provides perfect ventilation, keeps your mattress fresh and dry, and makes for much healthier air quality.

Unlike boats, campers and caravans usually don’t have a fixed-bed configuration. Even in these situations, Akwamat excels in its ventilation capabilities. Ventilation holes are often already present. If they are not, don’t worry; Akwamat delivers sufficient ventilation at the ends and through the cracks between the table and the benches.

In trailer tents, mattresses are usually located in the lid. In that case, you can opt for a slightly larger Akwamat. That way the Akwamat forms a lining on the inside of the lid, free ventilating due to its slightly larger size. This also applies to the alcove of a camper.
