Talley Goodson,
Founder

Interior spaces matter. They can change the way we feel, and I believe that we’re significantly more productive – and happier – in spaces that have been thoughtfully designed. It’s why the best companies out there invest in their workplace design. The same thing goes for the place you call home: an inviting, beautiful space can really make a difference in your quality of living. Felt Right is all about creating a space that’s both inspiring – and just right for YOU.

The Felt Right Story

I’m proud to have founded Felt Right, as it represents so many of the things I care about. I’d like to share our story with you by connecting the dots from my childhood experiences to the company we are today.

The Philippines - 1977

In the 70s, I had the privilege of living in the Philippines as a kid, where I developed a love for the unspoiled coastlines. Back then, many people there made their living from the sea, and I have distinct memories of spending time along the coastline in small fishing villages, marveling at the beautiful archipelagos and rich marine environments.

A Solution

A while back, I learned about a technology that could turn single-use plastic waste into beautiful, wool-like, felt fibers. These fibers could then be made into dimensionally stable felt boards. I was immediately captivated by the potential to put plastic waste to use for something beautiful and highly functional, but I was also excited to learn that these felt tiles actually absorbed sound. That’s the moment when Felt Right was born.

Today, all of our tiles are made from at least 60% recycled PET which means that each 12x12 tile contains the equivalent of 4 recycled water bottles. To me, that is 4 water bottles that will never end up in the ocean where they do not belong and I am happy to report that each year we are keeping millions of water bottles from entering the waste stream!

The sounds we hear around us can make a big difference in how we feel. I remember spending time in the Buddhist monastery pictured above, wondering why I was experiencing such a feeling of peace, only to realize later that it was due in large part to the way the sound was managed – and even shaped in that sacred space. Environments with negative acoustics can subject us to feelings of stress and fatigue, but when we manage the sound in our daily spaces, from home to work, it can impact our energy levels and creativity, bringing about a renewed sense of well being! Learn how Felt Right can transform the acoustics in your space.

Making The Journey Together

I love building companies that have a purpose and reflect my passion for making the world a better place. Growing a business is a journey that’s taken together, both with our team, and our growing family of customers who constantly come up with new and innovative ways to use our felt tiles. Thank you for being a customer and joining me on this unique journey. We’re committed to doing the right things as we take care of you and ensure that you have the best experience possible.

Sound Dampening

Felt Tiles

We think you’ll like the sound of this. Have you ever wondered why some spaces simply don’t sound good? In a 20-foot room with bare, reflective surfaces, sound waves bounce back and forth at roughly 60 times a single second. This reflected noise distorts direct sound and serves to drastically diminish your listening experience. Felt Right sound-dampening tiles have a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 0.35, which is comparable to one-inch thick polyurethane foam (a common sound- dampening material). An NRC of 0.35 means our felt tiles and felt boards absorb up to 35 percent of reflected sound. Installing Felt Right tiles on even just a single wall of your living room or workspace will noticeably improve your overall acoustic experience—which sounds pretty great to us.

Replace that outdated cork board with beautiful Felt Right tiles. Our stylish, high-quality felt tiles are perfect for organizing what matters to you.

That’s the beauty of our innovative and sound-dampening felt tiles. What can our felt tiles do for your walls? The better question would be what these felt tiles can’t do!

Felt Right FAQs

Product

What Gives Felt Right Tiles Their High-Quality, Beautiful Appearance?

Our felt panels have a warm, wool-like appearance with durable and wear-resistant constructions. Using a high-density, engineered PET felt board, beautiful chamfered edges, and engraved patterns that reflect your creativity, we fabricate our felt wall tiles to your exact specifications.

How Effective are Felt Right Tiles at Dampening Sound?

Felt Right tiles have an NRC (noise reduction coefficient) of .35. That means they absorb roughly 35% of the sound they come in contact with. Felt Right’s tiles often have a noticeable effect on your space’s acoustics, but the level they affect your sound depends on the surface.

Will My Tiles Work With Pins?

Felt Right tiles work with pins because we make them using high-quality, dense PET felt board. The PET felt board makes them perfect for pinning and repinning as many times as you want.

What Are Felt Right Tiles Made From?

We make Felt Right tiles from 100% PET plastic. Using PET plastic improves our sustainability and reduces our environmental impact. By reclaiming at least 50% of the plastic we use from discarded water bottles, we keep four water bottles out of the waste stream with every 12x12 felt wall tile we use.

How Do Felt Right Tiles Contribute to Healthy Indoor Air Quality?

Felt Right tiles adhere to strict quality standards and ensure our products do not contain any red-list chemicals or materials harmful to your health . Our materials have also been tested to confirm they do not emit any harmful gasses into the places where you install your designs.

Where Are Felt Right Tiles Made?

We make our felt panels in-house in Salt Lake City, UT. Our headquarters are located at the base of the beautiful Wasatch Mountain Range, which provide a backdrop almost as beautiful as our custom felt wall designs.

What Are the Felt Right Tile Sizes?

Felt Right tiles come in 6 distinct sizes that are designed to work together in our Design Studio:

Square 12x12 (11 7/8 actual)
Triangle 12x12 (11 7/8 actual)
Shiplap 24x6 (23 3/4 x 5 15/16 actual)
Half 12x6 (11 7/8 x 5 15/16 actual)
Quarter 6x6 (5 15/16 actual)

Pixel 3x3

Please note that dimensions are nominal and exact dimensions are slightly smaller (for example: 12” tiles are actually 11 ⅞”). All tiles are 3/8 inches thick.

Can Tiles Be Cut on Site to Specific Sizes?

Yes, we can cut our tiles to specific sizes and dimensions using a craft knife and a straight edge.

What Is the Tile Thickness?

Felt Right tiles are ⅜ inch or 9mm thick.

Do Felt Right Tiles Reduce Sound Transmission From or Through a wall?

Our felt tiles deaden sound transmission from nearby spaces. Multiple customer reviews highlight this benefit. However, we have not fully calibrated Felt Right tiles Sound Transmission Coefficient (STC), so we can’t accurately calculate the sound reduction range.

Do Felt Right Tiles Meet Flammability Requirements for Commercial Applications?

Yes. Made with material that has undergone ASTM E-84 testing, our felt panels are considered a Class A material for commercial specifications.

Will Quilting Fabric Designs Stick to Felt Right Tiles Without Pins?

No. Quilting designs will not stick to Felt Right tiles without pins. However, many quilters use pin boards to showcase their designs.

Installation & Configuration

What Is Required to Install My Felt Right Tiles?

We use easy-installation methods for our felt tiles that only require a tape measure, level, and pencil. After aligning your first few tiles, your design should be easy to complete. Most felt wall designs take less than an hour.

Are Adhesive Tabs Included in My Felt Right Order?

Every order of Felt Right tiles comes with plenty of adhesive tabs for installation. We also provide a few extra just in case you lose a few.

Can I Purchase Extra Adhesive Tabs?

Yes, to purchase extra adhesive tabs, visit our Shop section.

Are Felt Right Tiles Safe For My Walls?

Yes. Felt Right tiles utilize our proprietary, paint-safe adhesive and can be uninstalled damage-free when removed properly. Upon removal, the tile is first separated from the wall, leaving the tabs on the wall surface. The tabs are then removed from the wall by rolling them off with your thumb or fingers.

How Easy Is It to Clean Felt Right Tiles?

Our felt wall panels are easy to clean and maintain. To remove dust, all you need is a vacuum wand or hose. For spot cleaning, all you need is a damp rag or household cleaner to spray the tiles and wipe them down. For high-traffic, commercial applications, you can disinfect Felt Right tiles with common cleaning products.

Can I Relocate a Tile Once It’s in Place?

Of course. We include extra adhesive tabs in all of our orders. These extra tabs let you reposition one or two tiles during the installation process. If you find you need to move more tiles, you can always order extra adhesive squares.

How Should Felt Right Tiles Best Be Positioned to Dampen Sound?

Sound waves will typically reverberate between parallel surfaces. Because of this, positioning your felt wall panels on parallel walls is most useful to interrupt sound wave reverberation.

Can the Tiles Be Used in Ceiling Applications?

Yes, you can use Felt Right tiles in ceiling applications. However, we do recommend using Felt Right Commercial-Grade adhesive tabs to create a stronger, semi-permanent bond.

Can Felt Right Tiles Be Used in Flooring Applications?

You should not use Felt Right tiles for flooring applications.

Do the Tiles Stick to Textured Walls?

Felt Right adhesive tabs conform to most surfaces, including painted cinder block and textured walls.

Will Tiles Match if I Want to Add New Tiles to an Existing Design?

Generally, yes, however we do experience some dye-lot variation, particularly with the grey colors.

Dye-lot variations are typically not noticeable unless the tiles are placed next to each other. If you are ordering new tiles that will go next to existing tiles, you may want to just give us a quick heads up so we can help make sure you don't experience significant dye-lot issues.

Uninstallation

How do I uninstall tiles without damaging paint?

There are 2 important steps to uninstalling felt Right tiles without damaging paint:

Step 1: Carefully separate each tile from the adhesive tabs. Tiles are removed, leaving the tabs on the wall surface. This is done by inserting fingers between the tile and the wall, away from the tab location and gradually applying pressure until the tile separates from tabs. Avoid pulling the tile directly away from the wall in an abrupt or forceful manner as the tile needs time to release from the tabs.

Step 2: Roll the tabs off the wall. Once the tile has been removed from the wall, leaving the tabs, then remove each tab from the wall. This is done by starting at a corner of the tab, applying pressure and rolling the tab off of the wall with your finger or thumb. Avoid pulling the tab directly away from the wall.

If you have difficulty getting the tab to begin rolling, you can use a block pencil eraser to start the process.
