An object of the present invention is to produce a double-sided carpet type skin-equipped hollow molded article so as to prevent degradation of aesthetic appearance of the hollow molded article. The double-sided carpet type skin-equipped hollow molded article includes: a hollow molded article main body made of a thermoplastic and having a front surface wall and a back surface wall; and skins integrally bonded to the respective front and back surface walls. A first skin bonded to the front surface wall is a napped-type skin. A second skin bonded to the back surface wall is a skin having a thickness smaller than a thickness of the first skin. A wall surface to which the first skin is bonded protrudes outward more than a wall surface to which the second skin is bonded in a parting line of the hollow molded article main body. The first skin has a large thickness and is a napped-type skin. Therefore, obtained is an effect that a nap raised after deburring and cutting masks a cut portion.

The present invention discloses a silencer for automobile. The silencer is formed by press molding. The silencer has a first molded surface and a second molded surface which are opposite to each other in a thickness direction. The silencer at least includes a first fiber layer on which the first molded surface is formed and a second fiber layer integrated with an opposite surface to the first molded surface, the opposite surface being on the first fiber layer. Fibers of the second fiber layer exist partly on the opposite surface on the first fiber layer.

A fully compostable container is provided having an enclosed body with an opening through an interior surface and an exterior surface. The enclosed body having a plant fiber structural layer configured to biodegrade in ambient conditions into nontoxic residue and a fluid barrier layer formed on a first side of the structural layer to form the interior surface of the enclosed body, the fluid barrier layer configured to biodegrade in ambient conditions into nontoxic residue. The container is gradually biodegradable when exposed to a set of factors in a natural environment and has a shelf life of six months when stored under standard commercial conditions.
