Non-woven fabrics

Non-woven fabric is made by bonding or felting.

Bonding
Bonded-fibre fabrics are made from webs of synthetic fibres bonded together with heat or adhesives. They are cheap to produce but not as strong as woven or knitted fabrics. Bonded-fibre fabrics are mainly used for interlining. They are easy to sew, crease resistant, do not fray and are stable when washing and dry cleaning.

Felting
Wool felt is a non-woven fabric made from animal hair or wool fibres matted together using moisture, heat and pressure. Felt has no strength, drape or elasticity but it is warm and does not fray. Wool felt is expensive. It is used for hats and slippers and in handcrafts.

υφάσματα από συγκολλημένες ίνες

Δεν λέω θερμοσυγκολλημένες γιατί, όπως εξηγεί, είναι «bonded together with heat or adhesives».
