VELCRO

The problem with the old-fashioned zip fastener was that it often broke. Georges de Mestral experienced this when a broken zip fastener on his wife’s dress spoilt an evening out for the couple. It took a country walk and careful observation for him to have the clever idea for an alternative. On his return he noticed that he and his dog were covered with ‘burrs’ from a type of plant. They were so difficult to take off that he decided to find out why. When he looked at one under a microscope, he found out it had hundreds of small hooks that allowed it to stick to anything it touched. He immediately understood how he could use the hook idea to create a better alternative to the zip fastener. With the help of his business partner Jakob Muller he developed ‘Velcro’. Velcro has one side with thousands of very small loops, and another with thousands of little hooks. It is such a part of everyday life now that it is difficult to imagine how we managed without it. The name Velcro comes from the beginnings of two French words- VELOURS(velvet) and CROCHET(hook).
