The invention concerns a homogenous, in particular multicolored plastic sheet or panel, based on ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) as binder with a filler content of 30 to 80 wt. % and a process for producing it. In other embodiments the binder contains, in addition to the 70 to 85 wt. % of EVA, polypropylenes to improve the processability (tendency to adhere), EPDM to improve the flexibility, and polyethylenes to reduce the tendency to soiling. In the process described, several additives, each consisting of a binder containing at least some ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, up to 80 wt. % of fillers and up to 5 wt. % of pigments, are mixed, plasticized and granulated or comminuted to form granules or chips of assorted colours which are mixed and, possibly after other processing operations, pressed to form the plastic web or plates.

A process for the production of thick synthetic resin sheets having a multicolor pattern, involves processing heated thermoplastic chips into a coherent sheet by means of a pair of rolls profiled to a depth of about 0.1-0.5 mm which effect partially differing densification.

A process for the production of patterned tiles from thermoplastic synthetic resins includes the steps of forming a length of crude sheet stock by compressing unicolored and/or differently colored or multicolored particulate material of thermoplastic synthetic resin; cutting off crude sheets from the sheet stock; punching segments out of the crude sheets; combining the segments from at least two crude sheets of differing colors into a panel so that the segments complement one another, and thereafter press-molding the segments to form an intarsia tile with the use of pressure and heat so that the segments are welded together along joints formed therebetween.

A process for the continuous manufacture of sheeting from thermoplastic synthetic resins includes the steps of applying thermoplastic synthetic resin, in the form of particles, such as shreds, crumbs, cuttings, pieces, chips, or the like, continuously as a sheet-like layer of raw material to a moving support; passing the raw material layer through a heating zone to thereby preheat the material layer to a temperature approximately in the range from 100.degree. to 140.degree. C.; pressing the preheated material layer continuously over its full area during travel through a treatment zone so that, in a first phase, the raw material layer is compacted and welded under the effect of a pressure of from about 10 to 60 kp/cm.sup.2 and at the same time the material layer is heated to a temperature in the range from about 160.degree. to 220.degree. C; and, in a second, directly following phase, while maintaining said pressure, cooling the material layer and simultaneously pressing the layer to the thickness dimension predetermined by the amount of raw material layer applied to the moving support.
