Abstract: A method and an equivalent system of transferring information (9, 12) relating to textile tools—preferably to knitting-machine and felting needles—from a tool sales organisation (1) to the tool user (2) is described and claimed. With this system, each type of textile tool is provided with a name (5) by the tool sales organisation (1), wherein •a software system books orders (4) from tool users (2), •at least one identification device (27) is provided with which quantities of textile tools are provided with labels (8), •the software system can activate the identification device (27), which assigns labels (8) that do not contain the name (5), •a forwarding system (7) is provided, •an information carrier (10) is provided, which is accessible to the tool user (2) and on which information (9, 12, 19) concerning the quantity of textile tools is assigned to the label (8).

Abstract: A damping material (11) in accordance with the invention consists of a ground material that is composed of fibers that are in loose connection with each other. For example, the fibers are minimally interlooped with each other or also glued to each other. This ground material is condensed in some areas in that the fibers are reoriented or interlooped with each other to a greater degree or glued to each other. Consequently, zones (17) and (18) of different densities are formed, thus making it possible to increase and adjust, as desired, the sound-damping effect of the damping material.
