Definitions

  • the present invention is related to an adhesive fastener and more particularly related to an adhesive fastener for foam molding.
  • the adhesive fastener was conceived by a Swiss engineer. The idea came to him from the burrs (seeds) of burdock.
  • the adhesive fasteners consist of two components: typically, two lineal fabric strips which are attached to the opposing surfaces to be fastened. The first component features tiny hooks; the second features even smaller and “hairier” loops. When the two components are pressed together, the hooks catch in the loops and the two pieces fasten or bind temporarily.
