Did you know?
Everyone uses the scratch, but do you know its origin?
This textile material is an invention of the Swiss engineer, George de Mestral in 1941 following a walk with his dog; He notices that the latter is covered with burdock flowers. Indeed, the fruit of the burdock has a multitude of small hooks that grab the hairs of the animals.
This invention is then marketed in 1948 under the Velcro mark, contraction of the words “velvet” and “hooks”.
