A computer controlled laser system produces materials that can be as fireproof, waterproof, anti-bacterial and adhesive as required... all without using water, heat, chemicals and energy and without changing the look and feel of the material being treated.
After expressing thanks for such a riveting evening, members were reluctant to leave a world where textiles and engineering are merging ever closer!
