Abstract: An interior component for a vehicle may include a nonwoven fabric impregnated with a resin. The nonwoven fabric and resin are consolidated into a solid sheet devoid of pockets. The interior component may exclude metal coated filler particles and lubricants. The method of making the interior component includes the steps of: forming a nonwoven fabric of a staple fiber and a resin, consolidating the nonwoven fabric and the resin into a solid sheet, and forming the solid sheet into the vehicle component. The vehicle may be an airplane, train, subway car, light rail car, bus, or automobile. The resin may be a polymer selected from the group consisting of polyphenylene sulfide, polyetherimide, polyaryletherketone, co-polymers thereof, and combinations thereof.
