A nonwoven recyclable fabric and associated methods are provided. The fabric is formed from 100% polyester, and may also include surface coatings such as hydrophilic coatings to promote heat transfer as well moisture vapor transmission rates and/or a silicone coating to promote fabric smoothness and reduce abrasiveness of the fabric. The polyester fibers forming the fabric are obtained from a mixture of monocomponent high melt polyester fibers and bicomponent high/low melt polyester fibers. The bicomponent fibers have a high melt polyester core, and a low melt polyester outer sheath. The fibers are hydroentangled with one another. After entanglement, the low melt outer sheaths are melted to form a low melt binder interspersed with the high melt polyester fibers and the remaining high melt polyester cores. The binder fuses to these fibers to provide desirable strength characteristics.

A production method which increases the abrasion resistance of nonwoven textiles used in the automotive sector includes the operation steps of mixing of two or more fibers that have different melting points, application of opening, carding, and needle operations on the fiber on the texture production line, and fiber root binding in a ram drying oven without the need for using any chemical substance.
