Classroom noise reduction |
|
 |
We have tested the Flexi-Felt™ classroom noise reduction capabilities by using a sound meter. On average the Flexi-Felt™ reduced the noise of a 25 student classroom by over 90%. Studies have shown that children learn best in a silent environment. The teachers will also appreciate not having to raise their voice over the chair movement noise. |
Flooring protection |
|
 |
The Flexi-Felt™ furniture glide is simply the best flooring protection available due to its patented design. The Flexi-Felt™ increases the contact surface area thus reducing friction. Because the Flexi-Felt™ is always flat on the floor, there is no premature wear on the wool pad, which also means no premature wear on your floors! The non-synthetic, 100% wool felt is simply the softest felt material for flooring protection. |
Environment |
|
 |
The Flexi-Felt™ chair leg cover is a green choice when it comes to reducing noise and protecting your floors since they are made with a non-allergenic natural rubber with 100% wool felt. They are much more compact than the nylon felt tennis balls (3 times less material) and they last up to 15 times longer. So in fact over a 10 year period the Flexi-Felt™ will use up 45 times LESS landfill space than tennis balls. |
Allergies |
|
 |
Did you know that as much as 12% of children suffer from asthma and that the leading cause of asthma attacks are airborn allergens? Did you know that a tennis ball can holds large amounts of dust mites, mold, mildew, pollen, bacteria and other allergens? The Flexi-Felt™ chair leg cover has been tested by the Guthrie Institute with regards to latex allergens. The allergenic latex protein remained non-detectable as seen by these results (see result). Our rubber material is subjected to a heating process that destroys the allergenic protein involved in latex allergies |
Durability |
|
 |
We have tested the Flexi-Felts™ chair leg cover simulating a 400lb person. After simulating the typical chair movements during a typical school day for 5 years we noticed that the Flexi-Felt™ was still good to go. We then simulated a more typical 160lb adolescent and proved that the Flexi-Felt™ outlasts tennis balls 15 to 1. The main difference is that the Flexi-Felt™ is the only classroom chair glide cover that has quality and durabilty specifically designed into the product. |
We created the Flexi-Felt™ furniture glide based upon the feedback we received from teachers and principals with regards to the tennis balls. Here are the requirements they set forth for creating a new type of chair leg cover:
With all the requirements noted, we set forth and designed the Flexi-Felt™. Since one of the requirements was a compact shape, it was impossible to have a one size fits all furniture leg glide. We had to design a few models that fit various categories of furniture footings. After selling these for a few years, we received great feedback from teachers and principals stating that they loved the Flexi-Felt™ for classroom noise reduction. Still they found it difficult to identify which model they required. Following this comment we created a model selection document, so that our clients can visually identify the proper model. In order to further simplify the model selection process we went on to create a plastic template used to chose the proper model (see template form). We now have a furniture leg glide that fills every requirement set forth by school officials. Due to popular demand from teachers and principals that also use our product at home, we created a clear and smaller model for residential use. It is simply the best option available to protect hardwood floors. It has the same high quality 100% wool felt as the institutional models with a transparent sleeve to match any decor. You may contact us for special requirements or if you need help to ascertain your choice. |
