Company Description
Velcro Industries' story is fasten-ating. The company's versatile hook-and-loop fasteners originated in 1948 as the brainchild of a Swiss inventor, who became curious about cockleburs that stuck to his clothes. The resulting trademarked invention VELCRO (named for the French words for "velour" and "crochet") can be separated and reclosed 10,000 times, hold up to nine pounds per square inch, and has been used in a plethora of company-designed and consumer-devised applications. VELCRO, which is owned by Cohere, Ltd, sells its products to the apparel, automotive, consumer, electronic, and industrial markets worldwide from about a dozen factories in North America, Europe, and Asia/Pacific.
