Hobbs Bonded Fibers

Commitment to the use of natural, replenishable materials, particularly in the field of industrial applications, has led to much research into the properties of wool and cotton fibers. Hobbs has made considerable progress in the development of these environmentally friendly materials, widening the scope and versatility of the company’s fiber processing operations. Examples of these natural fiber projects include: oil spill clean-up booms and pads, wet and dry filtration media, batting for mattresses and futons, furniture padding, and insulation products for use in the construction industry.  

Research into new fiber composites, constructions and blends in continuous, not only for improving existing materials, but to meet the demands of tomorrow’s high-end technology applications. In this area, collaboration with fiber producers and technological institutions is paramount to Hobbs ongoing commitment – to find better ways in which to give both domestic and industrial consumers the benefits of quality American made products.
