The concern over the environment induced a large numbers of companies to start developing manufacturing process using alternative materials for their products and seeking new markets. With the significant production of waste fibrous materials, different companies are looking for applications wherein waste materials may represent an added-value material. This study is about the research where waste fibers are collected and transformed into a fibrous mat of more homogeneously mixed and combed fibers, mainly containing natural fibers. The fiber material is processed into a non woven fabric. There are many compelling reasons for the recycling of waste from textile products and processes. They include conservation of resources, reduction of the need for landfills and paying the associated tipping fees, and provision of low-cost raw materials for products.
