ABSTRACT:
A cushioned panel is provided together with a process of molding it. A non-woven fabric having an outer layer composed of polypropylene or other thermoplastic fibers is heated to the melting point of the fibers. It is inserted into a mold having a decorative surface fabric and a piece of foam cushioning therein. The mold is designed so that the edges of the male and female mold halves compress the molten non-woven substrate and the surface fabric forcing the molten surface of the substrate into the interstices of the surface fabric. A mechanical bond is formed upon cooling.
