Mats and rugs and process for producing the same

A mat having a laminate structure comprising:

• (A) a reverse side mat layer comprising
• (a1) a laminated mat of a base fabric and a nonwoven fabric made of a thermoplastic resin fibrous binder, wherein said base fabric and nonwoven fabric are united by needling;
• (a2) cut pile tufts made of a thermoplastic resin implanted into said laminated mat such that said cut pile tufts protrude out of the base fabric;
• and
• (a3) a resin adhesive layer formed by coating a liquid resin adhesive on said nonwoven fabric on the side opposite to said cut pile tufts and drying;
• (B) a thermoplastic resin adhesive layer;
• and
• (C) a surface mat layer;
• wherein the surface mat layer is adhered via the thermoplastic resin adhesive layer to said reverse side mat layer on the side of the reverse side mat layer having said liquid resin adhesive coating;
• wherein the cut pile tufts are of a monofilament, a flat yarn, or a bundle thereof;
• wherein the cut pile tufts are made of a synthetic resin having a flexural modulus of from 7,500 to 110,000 kg/cm.sup.2 ;
• and wherein the cut pile tufts are implanted under the following conditions:
• Implanting density:
• 16 to 400 roots/in.sup.2
• Implanting pitch--gauge direction:
• 4 to 20 roots/in stitch direction:
• 4 to 20 roots/in
• Pile height:
• 2 to 20 mm
• Pile thickness:
• 20 to 1000 .mu.m,
• such that the pile thickness corresponds to a pile fineness of 800 to 6000 denier.
