Abstract: A method to manufacture a carrier material including a nonwoven layer of fibers and threads extending in the longitudinal direction of the carrier material includes the steps of supplying a nonwoven layer of fibers, supplying a scrim comprising weft threads including a polymer having a melting temperature equal to or less than the lowest melting temperature of the thermoplastic fibers of the nonwoven layer of fibers, and thermally bonding the scrim to the nonwoven layer of fibers.

Abstract: A vinyl floor covering includes a carrier which includes a nonwoven layer of fibers containing thermoplastic fibers and high modulus threads extending in the longitudinal direction of the vinyl floor covering for eliminating wrinkles in the vinyl floor covering and for preventing the formation of printing errors and/or surface irregularities in the vinyl floor covering.

Abstract: The invention concerns a process for preparing a complex sheet comprising a layer of drylaid glass fibres and a layer of organic fibres, comprising: mechanical needling or fluid entanglement, e.g. hydroentanglement, of a nonwoven fabric of continuous organic fibres and of a veil of non-preconsolidated continuous glass fibres, the said nonwoven fabric of organic fibres and the said veil of glass fibres being juxtaposed and the said needles respectively the fluid, water jets being sent from the same side as the nonwoven fabric of organic fibres, in order to make a sheet; and then application of a binder to the bilayer. The so obtained complex fibrous structure shows a low tendency to delaminate and can be impregnated with asphalt or bitumen, and used in the field of roofing, sealing covering or membranes.
