Concrete Cloth: material of the year

Specialty Fabrics Review | March 2010

Material ConneXion, a leading global materials consultancy and innovative materials library, has awarded Concrete Canvas’ Concrete Cloth their first Medium Award for Material of the Year. The award recognizes materials entered into their materials library within the past year that demonstrate outstanding technological innovation and the potential to make a significant contribution to the advancement of design, industry, society and economy. The groundbreaking cement-impregnated flexible fabric enables a hard 3D concrete surface to be formed rapidly, using less material, labor and equipment. The material has also been used to create shelters that allow the rapid construction of safe, durable and insulated infrastructure for a wide range of commercial, military and humanitarian applications, including disaster relief.
