FIELD: textiles, paper.

SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to supporting elements such as tapes or sleeves which are used in production of labelled or textured nonwoven products having a pattern. The supporting element such as tape or sleeve comprises a surface relief pattern on the side which is in contact with the sheet. On the upper surface of the supporting element the contact pads, respective recesses, through cavities and/or grooves are formed to create a surface relief pattern. The contact pads, the respective recesses, the through cavities and/or grooves can be formed by engraving, cutting, etching, stamping, mechanical punching, or their combination. The improved tape or sleeve give the non-woven product manufactured on them the desired physical properties such as bulk density, appearance, texture, absorption capacity, strength and tactile sensations.

EFFECT: improved fibre cohesion, reduction of fluffing fibres, improved removal of fabric or its transfer from the specified supporting element to another, or to another position.
