Fabric of the future

Fabrican is a spray-on fabric created by Manel Torres, the founder of Fabrican, Ltd. Fabrican's patented technology involves the creation of a liquid suspension which is then sprayed by use of either a spray gun or an aerosol can.

Developed through a collaboration between Imperial College London and the Royal College of Art, Fabrican technology has captured the imagination of designers, industry and the public around the world. The technology has been developed for use in household, industrial, personal and healthcare, decorative and fashion applications using aerosol cans or spray-guns, and will soon be found in products available everywhere.

The fabric is formed by the cross-linking of fibres, which adhere to one another, to create an instant non-woven fabric that can be easily sprayed on to any surface. Its properties can be tailored to meet the needs of each user.
