PURPOSE: To prepare the subject nonwoven fabric useful for packaging materials, disposable chair covers, etc., and having excellent dimensional stability, water absorbability, etc., by laminating a web layer comprising thermoplastic synthetic filaments to a web layer comprising a cellulosic short fibers and integrating the layers in a three-dimensionally interlaced state,

CONSTITUTION: A web layer (preferably having a weight of 15-100g/m2) comprising cellulose short fibers is laminated to at least one surface of a web layer (preferably having a unit weight of 5-50g/m2) comprising thermoplastic synthetic filaments (preferably having a single fineness of ≤5 denier), and the laminated product is jetted with a high pressure liquid column-like flow to provide the nonwoven fabric integrally interlaced in a three-dimensional state.
