A nonwoven includes: framework fibers; an at least in part fused thermoplastic material; and a thermally embossed mesh pattern having a plurality of intersecting embossed grooves, between which a plurality of embossed elevations are arranged. At least the framework fibers are staple fibers. An equivalent diameter of the embossed elevations is smaller than 50% of a fiber length of the framework fibers. A ratio of a width of the embossed grooves to a thickness of the nonwoven in a region of the embossed elevations is less than or equal to 4/5 A ratio of the width of the embossed grooves to a thickness of the nonwoven in a region of the embossed grooves is from 0.5 to 2.
