Ready-to-install soundproofing and insulation solutions for vehicles and machines
Molded non-woven products are the perfect choice for effective sound and heat insulation in technical applications. Cellofoam develops and produces high-quality molded non-woven products that can be adapted optimally to complex geometries and are used in vehicles, machines and industrial applications.
Customized interior parts for the highest requirements
In our non-woven molding processes, state-of-the-art machines and presses turn the non-wovens into dimensionally stable, self-supporting, two- and three-dimensional parts according to customer specifications. The resulting products score with their excellent acoustic effectiveness and high dimensional stability.
Innovative production & sustainable combination materials
We match and combine various materials to create targeted solutions for different surface requirements and applications. Our non-woven products are based on high-quality polyester fibers (PES) and are partly made from recycled materials. Innovative production techniques such as thermomolding, water jet cutting and punching, enable us to realize tailor-made solutions for a wide range of sectors.

FAQ
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about our non-woven moulding process
Non-woven moulding is a thermal or mechanical process in which textile non-wovens are shaped into three-dimensional forms. This results in lightweight, stable and customisable components.
Moulded non-wovens are lighter, acoustically effective, cost-efficient, recyclable and offer flexible design options – ideal for technical applications.
Typical applications include headliners, cabin and side panelling in construction and agricultural machinery, as well as interior trim components for engine compartments in buses and commercial vehicles.
In addition, moulded non-woven parts are also used as technical panelling for machinery.
Thanks to thermoforming and pressing processes, complex 2D and 3D geometries, contours, curvatures and functional elements such as recesses or mountings are possible.
The non-woven fabric is heated, moulded, held in place in the mould and then cooled. Depending on the process, additional finishing treatments, coatings or laminations may be applied.
Yes, shaped non-woven fabrics offer excellent sound-absorbing and sound-insulating properties – ideal for noise reduction and vibration damping in machinery and vehicles.
Yes, Cellofoam develops bespoke 2D and 3D non-woven moulded parts, tailored to the geometry, material properties, acoustic objectives and temperature requirements.
Many non-woven fabrics are recyclable, made from recycled fibres or composed of resource-efficient, lightweight materials – an advantage over solid plastic components.
