The present invention relates to a non-woven composite fabric comprising at least one layer A and at least one layer B wherein at least one
surface layer of the non-woven composite fabric is formed by layer A wherein layer A is a non-
woven fabric and layer B is a non-
woven fabric. And wherein a) layer A comprises first fibers, preferably first filaments, the first fibers being first melt-spun composite fibers, preferably first melt-spun composite filaments, the first melt-spun composite fibers being split to at least a certain extent to produce first base fibers, preferably first base filaments, the first base fibers having an average denier of at most 0.2 dtex, the first base fibers having an average denier of at most 0.2 dtex, and the second base fibers having an average denier of at most 0.2 dtex; wherein the content of the first
fiber is from 10 wt.% to 35 wt.%, based on the total weight of the
nonwoven fabric; b) Layer B comprises b1) second fibers, preferably second filaments, having an average denier of 0.25 to 10 dtex, preferably 0.25 to 3.5 dtex wherein the content of the second fibers is 65 to 90 wt.%, based on the total weight of the
nonwoven fabric, or b2) a woven mesh comprising yarns having an average denier of 500 to 2200 dtex, preferably 800 to 2200 dtex wherein the content of the second fibers, based on the total weight of the
nonwoven fabric, is 65 to 90 wt.%, based on the total weight of the nonwoven fabric. The present invention relates to a non-
woven fabric comprising (b1) a first
fiber, preferably a first filament, having an average denier of 0.25 dtex to 10 dtex, and a woven mesh comprising a
yarn having an average denier of 500 dtex to 2200 dtex wherein the combined content of the second
fiber and the
yarn is 65 wt.% to 90 wt.%, based on the total weight of the non-woven fabric, or (b3) a second fiber, preferably a second filament, having an average denier of 0.25 dtex to 10 dtex, and a woven mesh comprising a
yarn having an average denier of 500 dtex to 2200 dtex, based on the total weight of the non-woven fabric.
