Blackpool, Lancashire -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/18/2015 -- A team at MIT are currently working on creating spacesuits made of stretchy material which shrink to fit astronaut's bodies. The technology could potentially be used in the military if it were to progress swiftly in its development, bearing in mind that it is currently in its infancy. This development follows a recent stream of product designs inspired by the basic premise of shrink-wrapping which is to speedily package a product to be airtight. The idea is now being researched to be applied on a global scale in commerce as monolithic as the aerospace and arms industry, albeit using different materials to the traditional polymer plastic films which are popularly used in machines such as LSealers.
Shrink wrapping is currently in extreme demand as a reliable part of the manufacturing process and is used to package products which are vital parts of our daily lives, such as food, stationery and software.
