Company

Feltest Equipment BV were founded in 1992. A few years before a felt designer, Dutchman Niek Lensvelt, wanted to know how the compaction of press felts changed over time so that he could improve the performance of his felts. As he could not find an appropriate instrument with the desired accuracy and repeatability, he designed an instrument himself. The result of his efforts is the original caliper gauge, nowadays called the Feltest caliper gauge “Classic”.

In the year 2001 an exclusive supply contract ended and on next years SPCI exhibition in Stockholm, Sweden, Feltest Equipment BV presented themselves to the worldwide paper industry. Since then things accelerated with nearly every year new high quality products that are added to the portfolio.

Feltest Equipment BV is a small and flexible company with an excellent network of suppliers. Driving force is Marcel Lensvelt, son of the founder Niek Lensvelt, who both have a thorough understanding of the PMC market and its requirements. Apart from high quality and durability for an affordable price, most products can also be modified or customized (for example with an engraved company logo) on demand. Contact us for details!
