Abstract
Felted fibrous construction materials and articles formed therefrom. The felted fibrous construction material is adapted to provide adequate strength to permit construction of three dimensional structures by use of standard joining techniques such as screws, nails, glue and the like. Panels of the felted fibrous construction material also provide substantial impact resistance when used in storm shutter applications.
Claims19
A three dimensional cabinet structure comprising a plurality of panels adapted to be adjoined to one another such that said panels define a three dimensional structural body of said cabinet structure, wherein at least a portion of said panels comprise a fibrous felted material, wherein said fibrous felted material comprises a plurality of entangled polymeric fibers and wherein at least a portion of said entangled polymeric fibers are melt fused together such that a plurality of fiber to fiber fusion bonding points are distributed within said fibrous felted material.
An exterior storm shutter for a dwelling comprising at least one panel comprising fibrous felted material wherein said fibrous felted material comprises a plurality of entangled polymeric fibers and wherein at least a portion of said entangled polymeric fibers are melt fused together such that a plurality of fiber to fiber fusion bonding points are distributed within said fibrous felted material.
