Abstract
The invention relates to recyclable textile floor coverings for motor vehicles with a multi-layer structure and processes for their preparation. In particular, recyclable textile floor coverings for motor vehicles with a multi-layer structure include a foam layer, a separation layer, a heavy layer, and a textile carpet, wherein the adhesiveness of the separation layer with respect to the heavy layer is different than the adhesiveness of the separation layer with respect to the foam layer. In another embodiment, the separation layer is separably bonded to the heavy layer by spot bonding and/or is separably bonded to the foam layer by spot bonding. The separation layer allows separate recycling of the foam layer on one hand and the textile carpet including the heavy layer on the other hand.
