 Did you know?

The thistle is closely tied to the production of wool felt, and so its graphical depiction in the company´s logo is by no means an insignificant choice.

“Carding” designates the process of disentangling and cleaning bundles of wool intended for the production of felt. This term is derived from the French word for thistle – “chardon” – since, long ago, this process of refining and transforming wool was done with the aid of these thorny plants. Today, the bundles are placed in drums covered with very fine steel points and which are rotated in order to pull the wool fibers, remove any impurities and create a very fine and homogeneous material that will subsequently be felted.
