Abstract: A nonwoven laminate, includes in order (A) to (F), a spunbond nonwoven layer (A) including fibres with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and copolyester, and an optional spunbond nonwoven layer (B) including fibres, which include polyethylene terephthalate and copolyester, the nonwoven layer (B) having a higher copolyester content than nonwoven layer (A). A needled staple fibre nonwoven layer (C) includes monocomponent polyethylene terephthalate staple fibres (c1) and multicomponent staple fibres (c2), which include at least a polyethylene terephthalate component and a copolyester component. An optional spunbond nonwoven layer (D) includes fibres, with polyethylene terephthalate and copolyester, the nonwoven layer (D) having a higher copolyester content than nonwoven layer (E). A spunbond nonwoven layer (E) includes fibres with polyethylene terephthalate and copolyester.

Abstract: A nonwoven laminate, including a nonwoven layer including multicomponent staple fibres and a needled nonwoven layer including monocomponent staple fibres and multicomponent staple fibers, wherein the layers are bonded to each other by melt-bonding, and not by needling. The multicomponent staple fibers include a polyester component and a copolyester component and the monocomponent staple fibers in the needled nonwoven layer are polyester fibers. All fibres of the nonwoven laminate are polyester and/or copolyester fibers, and the needled nonwoven layer has a basis weight of 500 to 2000 g/m2, determined according to DIN EN 29073-1:1992-08. The nonwoven laminate has a bending force of at least 6 N, determined according to ISO 178:2019 for 2 mm deflection.

Abstract: A thermoformable decorative material for an automotive interior includes: a decorative layer including a textile substrate; a digitally printed design disposed on at least one side of the textile substrate and having dispersion ink and/or pigment ink; and an overlay adhesive coating applied to the digitally printed design. The overlay adhesive coating has an adhesive that includes polyurethane and/or polyacrylate.

Abstract: An embossed non-woven for the vehicle interior, includes: polyethylene terephthalate framework staple fibers; and polyethylene terephthalate binding staple fibers. A proportion of polyethylene terephthalate binding staple fibers is 5 to 50 wt. % based on a total weight of the non-woven. The polyethylene terephthalate binding staple fibers includes core/shell staple fibers. A shell of the core/shell staple fibers has low-melting co-polyethylene terephthalate having a melting point measured in accordance with DIN ISO 11357-3 (2013) in a range of 80° C. to 230° C.

Abstract: A filter arrangement for a vehicle includes a flat filter element. The filter element has a filter medium and is integrated into an interior component of the vehicle. The filter element forms a surface facing an interior of the vehicle. In an embodiment, air flows through the filter element, and the air exits through the filter element into the interior of the vehicle.

Abstract: A heat-embosssed non-woven that is suitable for producing a decorative layer for a car passenger compartment includes: thermoplastic fibers, being needled and having a maximum tensile elongation of at least 30%; and embossed recesses that have base surfaces at a bottom thereof. A ratio between a thickness of the non-woven in a region of the base surfaces of the recesses and a thickness of the non-woven in a region of the non-embossed regions is at most 0.1. A fraction of a total surface area of the non-woven made up by a total base surface area of the recesses is from 0.5% to 30%.
