Abstract: A non-woven material including a base layer and one or more fiber cap layer. In example embodiments, the fiber cap layer can be (1) used as an adhesive layer to bond the base layer to another material, (2) molded in order to create a smooth film surface that reduces ice, mud and snow buildup in the automotive part, (3) molded to increase stability and reduce sagging in the automotive part, or (4) molded into an air flow resistant layer to increase sound absorption properties. The non-woven material can be heat-resistant, flame-resistant, water-resistant, and/or recyclable.
