Insights to our production
THE CARDING MACHINE
The oldest machine in the factory has been
operating in Snældan's factory since 1968. This
large machine produces a continuous web of the
wool, making it suitable for subsequent processing.
THE SPINNING MACHINE
Our current spinning frame has been at our factory
since 1994. Once the wool has been through the
carding machine, the spinning frame spins the
wool into a thin thread for thread-twisting and reeling.
OUR COLOURS
We produce over 20 colours, made up by a
combination of natural and dyed colours. We are
always looking to add and build upon our colour
line to meet our customer expectations.
