A weight and noise reducing glovebox assembly made of an inner glovebox bin composed of a pair of thermopolymer fiber layers that work in concert to absorb noise and isolate noise and vibration providing a glovebox with improved NVH characteristics. The glovebox bin is formed of a three dimensionally chill formed structural layer composed of PET fiber to which is mated, preferably by needle tacking, an inner carpet layer also composed of PET fiber providing two stage noise, sound and vibration reduction. In a preferred embodiment, the inner PET fiber carpet layer is mated, preferably by needle tacking, to an outer structural moldable PET fiber substrate layer forming a two-stage sound, noise and vibration absorbing and isolating thermoformable blank that is chilled formed into a sound absorbing glovebox bin of one piece flip open construction that is lighter in weight and which has reduced sound and noise generation and transmission compared to conventional hard plastic gloveboxes.
