Wall field
Softline Wall Felt brings a continuous, soft touch to walls behind sofas, beds or reception counters. Choose it for calm acoustics and gentle warmth in living or shared spaces.
Softline Wall Felt is a continuous or panelised felt treatment for vertical surfaces. We fit it behind sofas, beds, boardroom screens or reception desks, wherever a wall needs to feel softer and quieter. The textile is designed to cover large fields, either as one continuous area or as joined panels, for a calm modern look.
This wall felt is ideal in places where sound bounces harshly off plaster or painted brick, or where you want to break up the cold feel of stone and tile. Residential lounges, bedrooms, open-plan offices, clinics or hotel lobbies all benefit from the acoustic and tactile comfort of Softline Wall Felt.
Felt is a non-woven textile, so edges stay neat when cut to fit. The structure helps absorb speech and dull clatter, especially in busy open spaces. The acoustic effect depends on how the felt is mounted: fixing it over an air gap or soft backing boosts its sound absorption, while direct adhesive to a wall is more subtle but still helps with mid to high frequencies.
Beyond sound, felt adds real comfort. It takes the edge off cold, echoey walls in winter and makes a space more inviting. Felt also stands up well to day-to-day scuffs, as there are no loose threads to catch. For high-contact areas like reception backs or behind banquettes, the thickness and density keep marks minimal with regular care.
Softline Wall Felt comes in 6 to 10 mm thickness, which is practical for most wall applications. Thicker felt gives a plusher look and better sound absorption, while thinner panels suit tight spaces or more subtle finishes. You can specify panelised widths to suit your wall size or design vision: we advise laying out panels to avoid visible joins where possible.
Colour choice matters for both mood and maintenance. Our finishes include Sage Field, Mist Paper, Ink Edge, Soft Leaf, Stone Wash, Cloud Pale, Forest Mute, Sand Quiet, Clay Mute and Teal Soft. If you are matching existing decor, we recommend booking a sample loan or visiting one of our showrooms to view swatches under your own light. Dye lots can vary slightly, and colours show differently depending on natural or artificial light.
Softline Wall Felt can be fitted by rail for easy removal or directly bonded with adhesive for a continuous look. In offices or public settings, a rail mount makes future changes simpler; in homes, adhesive may be more discreet. Installation is dust-free and quick, but always let new felt breathe for a few days before heavy use, especially in humid coastal climates or after a long delivery.
In the first months, brush or vacuum the felt regularly to keep dust away and help it settle. Avoid hanging damp washing against the felt and use blinds or UV film near sunny windows to reduce fading, especially on the Highveld. For spot cleaning, blot spills gently with a cool damp cloth and let the felt dry flat. Always follow our care guides for long-term performance.
