PLA needle-punched nonwoven Fabric
PLA or polylactic acid is obtained from the fermentation and polymerisation of sugars from plant resources (corn starch) and can therefore be considered as derived from renewable energies. The PLA fibres are then obtained by extruding granules of this polymer; they are therefore totally biodegradable according to standard DIN EN 13432.
The 100% PLA felt made by VINNER is a non-woven, needle-punched fabric calendered on one side. Calendering means turning the felt constantly on a roller heated to a temperature that can fuse the PLA fibres lightly on the surface. This increases the cohesion and strength of the final product and gives it a smooth surface with no stick points. “Cleaner” degradation than the synthetic Ground covers which unravel.
