Trichotech

Reimagining reactive adhesives through the art and science of caddisfly silk

Trichotech is a conceptual nature-inspired adhesive system modeled on caddisfly silk. When activated, it forms a thin, elastic filament that bonds to almost any surface, even at microscopic scales. It offers a sustainable alternative to synthetic glues, enabling precise micro-repair of fragile materials and promoting a circular approach to restoration.
