Abstract: A fashion felt of laminar structure comprising two outer layers at least one of which consists essentially of melt fibres, a layer of synthetic fibres, preferably synthetic fibre waste, positioned between the two outer layers, and a layer of surface batt secured to one of the outer layers. The laminar fashion felt possesses a high degree of plasticity and is given the desired shape in heat and compression treatments and the desired outlines in cutting operations. By varying the thickness of the batt layer and by compressing different parts of the product to a larger or lesser extent, the degree of softness or hardness of the product could be chosen in accordance with the end use thereof. The fashion felt is particularly useful for furniture and car interior upholstery and fittings. The invention also concerns a method of producing the felt.
