A method of producing rubber-based coverings and intermediate and final products produced by the method

摘要

A method of producing a rubber-based covering comprising at least one layer formed from fragmented cohesible material (M) comprises the steps of forming (11) a substantially continuous bed of the fragmented cohesible material (M) and subjecting the material of the bed to a compacting step (7) so as to form a sheet material as a result of the cohesion of the material. The compaction step (7) is performed with a substantial absence of stretching stresses on the fragmented material.
