CREATING INNOVATIVE,TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN PRODUCTS

摘要

W. L. Gore & Associates has made its name by creating innovative, technology-driven products. The company's 50-year history of innovation extends from high-performance fabrics to cardiovascular patches, and from guitar strings to electronic cables used in space exploration. Today the company provides thousands of products that have set performance standards in diverse consumer, medical, industrial, electronic, and automotive markets. And behind every product and every application is a dedicated commitment to performance and reliability. Gore began its research in the fabrics area in the 1970s with its discovery that outerwear could be both waterproof and moisture-vapor breathable at the same time. Gore's revolutionary barrier technology - proven for the past 25 years - forever changed the standard of performance outerwear, with a level of comfort and protection that surpasses any other fabric in its class. GORE-TEX~R fabric is probably the most broadly recognized name in waterproof textiles; and along with its recreational use, it is also worn by medical professionals, fire services, the military, utility workers, and emergency personnel.
