NEW MATERIALS

The same scientific research that has led to super-high performance materials over the years is now focusing on super-flexible, super-adaptable materials, including substances that repair themselves.

Elastic Repair Patches

Tear-Aid
United States, 1984

Strong adhesive films for the do-it-yourselfer: the transparent waterproof patches make it possible to repair tears in fabrics or vinyl membranes, ensuring physical continuity, durability, possibility of outdoor use and respect for the characteristics of the material to be repaired, especially in terms of elasticity. Towards the end of the 1980s an adhesive patch was also patented by two American scientists for the repair of interior walls.
