films are used as insulating panel against heat or cold in
light construction.
Floor Coverings
Laminated nonwovens are used as secondary backing
providing resilience and insulating properties.
Sportswear and Leisure sector
Nonwoven laminates are used under face fabric to
provide water/wind proofing at the same time it
provides breathability. (Airease)
