The current invention relates to a textile suited for packaging, transporting and/or storing items, wherein said textile is a multilayered textile, said multilayered textile comprising a reinforcing middle part, a first outer nonwoven layer and a second outer nonwoven layer, wherein said reinforcing middle part is sandwiched between said first outer and said second outer nonwoven layer wherein said reinforcing middle part is comprised of two superimposed scrim layers, wherein each of said scrim layers has a weight between 50 to 100 g/m.sup.2 and said textile has a total weight of between 250 and 350 g/m.sup.2 as measured by EN 9073-1:1992. The current invention also relates to a container comprising aforementioned textile.

Methods and systems are provided for a process to generate a nonwoven textile. In one example, the nonwoven textile may have layered, zonal properties resulting from entangling of two or more types of staple fibers through a merging region between the layers of staple fibers while maintaining distinct zones, each zone comprising a type of staple fiber. Furthermore, the process may include embedding a filament layer into the nonwoven textile via a continuous assembly line.

Aspects herein are directed to a recyclable, asymmetrical-faced composite nonwoven textile suitable for use in apparel and other articles and methods of making the same. In example aspects, the asymmetrical-faced composite nonwoven textile includes a first face formed, at least in part from a first entangled web of fibers and an opposite second face formed, at least in part from a second entangled web of fibers. When incorporated into an article of apparel, the first face forms an outer-facing surface of the article of apparel, and the second face forms an inner-facing surface of the article of apparel. The first face includes features making it suitable to form the outer-facing surface such as resistance to abrasion, and the second face includes features making it suitable to form an inner-facing surface such as a soft hand.

A method for producing a composite nonwoven fabric having at least two layers, wherein a first layer is made of long fibers, and a second layer is made of short fibers. The method includes attaching, in a production line, the short fibers of the second layer to the long fibers of the first layer in a wet laid process via a headbox. The headbox has a round flow or cross flow distributor with a rotating or static turbulence generator.

Nonwoven fabrics are provided that include a mechanically entangled blend of fibers comprising (a) post-consumer recycled polymer staple fibers (PCR-staple fibers) and (b) one or more additional fibers, in which the one or more additional fibers are different than the PCR-staple fibers. The PCR-staple fibers are mechanically entangled with the one or more additional fibers to define the nonwoven fabric.

A manufacturing method is provided. The manufacturing method arranges a first surface of a first composite preform component to align with a first surface of a second composite preform component; attaches the first surface of the first composite preform component to the first surface of the second composite preform component to form a complex composite structure; and densifies the complex composite structure as one, complete complex composite structure.

Disclosed in the present invention are a non-woven fabric having stripe protrusions on a surface, and an absorption product thereof. The surface of the non-woven fabric has several stripe protrusions which longitudinally extend and are transversely distributed; the stripe protrusions have a height between 0.5 mm-3.0 mm; a plurality of openings are formed in opening areas formed between the adjacent stripe protrusions; and the average area of each opening is less than 20 mm.sup.2. The longitudinal stripe protrusions on the surface of the non-woven fabric can guide body fluid in the longitudinal direction of the absorption product to increase a body fluid permeation area and increase the body fluid infiltration speed as well as effectively stop the body fluid from leaking laterally.

Breathable elastic composites including a first nonwoven material comprising a first plurality of fibers, a second nonwoven material comprising a second plurality of fibers, and a film comprising a plurality of apertures, in which the film is located between the first nonwoven material and the second nonwoven material. At least a portion the first plurality of fibers and/or at least a portion of the second plurality of fibers extend through at least a portion of the plurality of apertures and are physically entangled together.
