Abstract: An apparatus and a method for producing a floor mat carrying a group of projections with a predetermined shape on a reverse surface to be contacted with a floor, by passing a molding resin material through a nip between a press roll and a mold roll are disclosed.

Abstract: A surface material for interior materials of cars comprising a needle punched felt of which one side surface is needle punched and is impregnated with a synthetic resin emulsion and a web composed of a hot-melt fiber, which is laminated on the impregnated surface of the needle punched felt, and having a 30% modulus of not more than 9 kg/5 cm.width and the shape stability of at least than 60% after shaping. According to the present invention, a surface material for interior materials of cars showing excellent elongation when deep drawing without abrasion can be realized.

Abstract: An interior material for cars comprising a needle punched felt of which both side surfaces are impregnated with synthetic resin emulsions, wherein the minimum film forming temperature of a synthetic resin emulsion (a) impregnated into one side surface of the needle punched felt is lower than that of a synthetic resin emulsion (b) impregnated into the other side surface of the needle punched felt. The interior material for cars of the present invention is cheap and has excellent rigidity.
