Processes for producing flexible polyurethane foam laminates and laminates produced thereby

A continuous compression molding process for producing a flexible polyurethane foam laminate, comprising:

• (a) feeding a first facing material along a first heated surface;
• (b) feeding a second facing material along a second heated surface, wherein the second heated surface is disposed generally parallel to the first heated surface at a preselected distance that defines a vertical space between the first facing material and the second facing material and that defines the thickness of the laminate;
• (c) depositing a polyurethane foam-forming composition onto the first facing material as it is being fed;
• and
• (d) allowing the polyurethane foam-forming composition to react in the vertical space, thereby rising until the rise is restricted by the second facing material and wherein the polyurethane foam-forming composition produces a cured flexible polyurethane foam laminate having a foam density of no more than 10 lb/ft3 (160 kg/m3).
