Cool science makes itself fashionable
Cool science makes itself fashionable

(sticK - 12 April 2011 ) Up till now dyeing a pattern on wool fabric has been a relative no-goer because bleeding of the dyes into each other ruined whatever picture you were trying to create.
So, keep an eye out for some new dyed wool products coming to a store near you soon - a result of some pretty cool science and research that no one else around the world has managed to crack.
Wellington and Christchurch based BGI Developments has won the right to commercialise AgResearch's new process, which apparently is a quite simple addition to a fabric manufacturers set up.
For sticK – science, technology, innovation & commercialisation KNOWLEDGE - is a new Wellington based news service concentrating on following the money from ideas to income. Contact editor Peter Kerr at peter.kerr055 @ gmail.com
