A method to produce a veneer element, including defects and dense portions. The method includes providing a substrate, providing a sub-layer, including a binder and colored filler particles, applying the sub-layer on a first surface of the substrate, applying a veneer layer on the sub-layer, and applying pressure, preferably heat and pressure, to the veneer layer and/or the substrate, thereby forming a veneer element wherein, after pressing, the sub-layer is visible through a defect of the veneer element such as crack, cavity, hole and/or knot of the veneer layer. Also, a veneer element.

A body limb protection system includes an outer layer, an inner layer, and a force dampening and defusing structure. The outer layer includes a first material composition and has an exterior surface that includes a substantially planer area. The inner layer includes a second material composition and has a shape corresponding to a body limb portion. The force dampening and defusing structure is positioned between the inner layer and the outer layer. The force dampening and defusing structure has a shape corresponding to a difference between the shapes of the inner and outer layers. The force dampening and defusing structure includes a plurality of components arranged to reduce pressure on the body limb portion when a force is applied to the substantially planer area.

An upholstered comfort member, comprising a resilient comfort material and a cover fabric. The resilient comfort material comprises lignocellulosic fibres, which provides resilient properties to the resilient comfort material, and a binder at a concentration of between 1 and 30 wt %. The binder binds the lignocellulosic fibres together. The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing of such an upholstered comfort member.

A metal roofing system contains, in order a roof deck, a fire resistant (FR) fleece, and a metal sheeting system. The second side of the FR fleece faces the roof deck. The FR fleece contains a plurality of FR staple fibers and a plurality of first char scaffold fibers. The FR fleece has a fleece thickness defined as the distance between the first side and the second side. The metal sheeting system contains a plurality of metal sheets having an upper and lower side, where the lower side of the metal sheeting system faces the first side of the FR fleece. The metal sheets have an average metal sheet thickness defined as the distance between the upper and lower sides, where the thickness of the FR fleece is at least about 3 times the average metal sheet thickness. The FR fleece has a density of less 0.5 g/cm.sup.3.

A roof system comprising a roof substrate, a first membrane including first and second opposed planar surfaces, and a second membrane including opposed first and second planar surfaces, where said second membrane is adhered to said roof substrate through an adhesive disposed on said roof-substrate contacting portion of the first membrane, and where said second membrane is adhered to said first membrane through said adhesive disposed on a lap portion of said second membrane.

A tonneau cover for covering the opening of a cargo bed of a pickup truck. The tonneau cover includes a sandwich panel including a structural core, a first layered section, and a second layered section. The structural core has a top surface and a bottom surface. The first layered section is coupled to the top surface of the structural core, and a second layered section is coupled to the bottom surface of the structural core. Each of the first and second layered sections includes a reinforcement layer, and at least one of the reinforcement layers of the first and second layered sections is a carbon fiber mat. The tonneau cover may have a single panel configuration or a tri-panel configuration.

The present disclosure is an attachment configuration of decorative laminates comprising at least paired two decorative laminates attached to a base material. The at least paired two decorative laminates each have a double-sided adhesive tape adhered to an outer circumferential portion on a back side of the decorative laminate and a double-sided adhesive tape adhered to an inner portion inward of the outer circumferential portion to form a section. Elastic glue is applied to an outside of the double-sided adhesive tape for the outer circumferential portion on the back side. The elastic glue is also applied within the section formed with the double-sided adhesive tape for the inner portion. The at least paired two decorative laminates are fixed to the base material on their respective back sides while being spaced apart from each other.
