The invention relates to a fiber composite with a fibrous material for reinforcement and a matrix material consisting essentially of shellac. The invention also relates to a process for producing a fiber composite with the steps: dissolving the shellac in a solvent, impregnating the fibrous material, heating the impregnated fibrous material and compressing the impregnated fibrous material and simultaneously curing the matrix material. The production process is alternatively characterized by the steps: dissolving the shellac in a solvent, obtaining a solid by removing the solvent, pulverizing the solid, working the pulverized solid into the fibrous material, heating the fibrous material mixed with the pulverized solid, in the process of which the solid softens and permeates the fibrous material, and compressing the permeated fibrous material and simultaneously curing the matrix material. The fiber composite according to the invention is distinguished by the fact that it can be handled well for processing purposes and has good mechanical properties.
