About us - The Manufacture

In our manufacture in Werfen we currently have twelve employees. They produce Zapf hats in fifteen individual production steps.

As raw material we use hair- and wool-felt from Europe. The high quality is the result of traditional Austrian craftsmanship. In contrast to the industrial production (compression of the felt) our hats are pulled manually over a wooden shape. All subsequent working steps are done by our employee’s hands with a passion for detail. The individual design of the different models is very important to us.

Beside our collections Zapf Classic, Zapf Hunting and Collection Habsburg we also produce hats for associations.
