This study investigates the mechanical, structural, and thermal performance of bio-based composite laminates reinforced with nonwoven fibrous materials derived from polylactic acid (PLA), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), and polyamide 1010 (PA1010). The fibrous reinforcements, produced using melt-blown and electrospinning techniques, were characterized in terms of morphology, fibre diameter distribution, and wettability, and subsequently incorporated into bio-resin laminates to strengthen them. The curing behaviour of the composites was evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results demonstrate that fibre structure and morphology strongly influence resin impregnation and interfacial interactions. Mechanical properties varied significantly depending on the reinforcement type. PA1010-based laminates exhibited the highest strength and stiffness due to their compact and uniform fibrous structure. PBS-based systems showed intermediate behaviour, while PLA-based composites displayed lower strength but higher deformability. DSC results indicated that fibre type affected crosslinking efficiency. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed similar initial thermal stability of laminates (T5% ≈ 299–313 °C), governed by the resin matrix, while differences at higher temperatures reflected the type of reinforcement used. These findings highlight the importance of fibre morphology and interfacial compatibility in designing sustainable composite laminates reinforced with recycled fibrous materials.
