    Abstract: A device and a method for producing a nonwoven product from fibres laid randomly in the air flow, especially cellulose fibres, and the resultant nonwoven product, in which a fibre material comprising fibres in bonded form is frayed in at least one mill and the resulting fibres are delivered in an air flow from the at least one mill to at least one depositing sieve and laid randomly on the at least one depositing sieve such that the nonwoven product is formed on the at least one depositing sieve, wherein a fibre material is broken down in a pre-shredding device into a pre-shredded fibre material deliverable in an air flow and there is provided a buffer storage to form a pre-shredded fibre material-stockpile from which pre-shredded fibre material is removed and delivered in an air flow to the at least one mill.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to flame resistant fabrics formed with inherently flame resistant fibers that provide the requisite thermal and arc protection, that have improved comfort, and that, in some embodiments, are less expensive than other fabrics formed with inherently flame resistant fibers. Improved comfort and lower cost can be achieved by predominantly locating the inherently flame resistant fibers on the front face of the fabric to impart the requisite thermal and arc protection and predominantly locating the more comfortable (and less expensive) fibers on the back face of the fabric positioned next to the wearer. In this way, overall protection of the fabric is maintained while improving comfort. Some embodiments of such fabrics may also achieve NFPA 70E PPE Category 2 protection.

    Abstract: A terry article includes a ground component including a plurality of ground warp yarns and a plurality of ground weft yarns interwoven with the plurality of ground warp yarns. The ground component includes a second side and a first side opposed to the second side along a vertical direction, as well as a pile component extending away from the ground component along the vertical direction. The pile component includes a plurality of plied yarns, where each of the plied yarns includes 1) a first yarn that has a first yarn count, and 2) a second yarn that has a second yarn count that is greater than the first yarn count. The second yarn includes regenerated cellulose fibers.

    Abstract: Unique blends of fibers that incorporate synthetic cellulosic fibers to render fabrics made with such blends more durable than fabrics made with natural cellulosic fibers such as cotton. While more durable than cotton, the synthetic cellulosic fibers used in the blends are still inexpensive and comfortable to the wearer. Thus, the benefits of cotton (affordability and comfort) are still attained while a drawback of cotton—low durability—is avoided. In one embodiment, the fiber blend includes FR modacrylic fibers and synthetic cellulosic fibers, preferably, but not necessarily non-FR lyocell fibers such as TENCEL™ and TENCEL A100™. Other fibers may be added to the blend, including, but not limited to, additional types of inherently FR fibers, anti-static fibers, anti-microbial fibers, stretch fibers, and/or high tenacity fibers. The fiber blends disclosed herein may be used to form various types of FR fabrics. Desired colors may be imparted in a variety of ways and with a variety of dyes to the fabrics disclosed herein. Fabrics having the fibers blends disclosed herein can be used to construct the entirety of, or various portions of, a variety of protective garments for protecting the wearer against electrical arc flash and flames, including, but not limited to, coveralls, jumpsuits, shirts, jackets, vests, and trousers.
