United Bonded Fabrics (UBF) is an Australian owned company which can trace parts of its business back to the 1870s when the David Galt Company manufactured a range of felted textiles made from natural fibres in Melbourne.

The modern UBF commenced operations in the 1960’s in Sydney blending both natural and synthetic fibres into a range of consumer and industrial felts and fabrics, before growth and acquisition saw the Company expand rapidly in Queensland, and finally establish its fourth manufacturing facility in Western Australia to give the Company unparalleled reach to its customers around Australia.

Processing technologies include opening, blending, carding, airlay, needle punching. heat bonding, lamination, quilting and conversion into finished products.

Continued investment in novel processing technologies and product development has been blended with decades of fibre processing know-how and the latest developments in fibre performance, allowing UBF to bring its customers a diverse range of high quality and high performance products crafted to meet exacting needs and deliver excellent value to its customers.

UBF enjoys relationships with many of the world’s leading fibre makers which gives it access to the latest fibre innovations for incorporation into new and existing products. All of UBF’s products are made from organic, recycled or virgin fibres using energy efficient manufacturing processes without the use of chemical or solvent additives.

UBF has always had a strong commitment to better living; sustainability and the environment. Every product is engineered to improve the physical environment of its customers through increased comfort and protection as well as reduce the cost and use of energy in everyday living without the need to compromise lifestyle. Manufacturing processes generate little or no waste, and any production waste fibres are fully recycled.
