The fleeces (7, 8, 9) are continuously supplied together to one or more heaters (12, 13), passing them immediately afterwards between pressing rollers (10, 11). An Independent claim is also included for the machine carrying out the process. Preferred features: Fleeces are withdrawn continuously from their storage rolls (1-6) for supply to the heater. Before being rolled up, they are needled. The natural fiber fleece (8) contains low melting point thermoplastic fibers. The plastic fiber fleece contains thermoplastic fibers of both low and high melting points. Heaters act on mutually-facing sides of the fleeces. By heating only at the surface, the low melting point thermoplastic fibers are melted. Hot air is employed for heating. Fleeces are supplied to heating, edge-aligned. Mats are divided to predetermined width, by longitudinal cutters (29).
