Coordinator : Dr. Myriam Vaneste (Centexbel, Ghent, Belgium)
UCL promotors : Alain Jonas, Karine Glinel, Bernard Nysten (BSMA)

The Interreg France-Wallonie-Vlaanderen project Duratex aims to develop a dirt repellent and antimicrobial textile for durable applications in construction and architecture. The developed methodologies will respond to the requirements of the textile industry (cost, production speed, complex functionalities). Moreover, they will be ecological and applicable by means of the existing machinery.
