What is Paverpol?

​​Paverpol was created by a group of Dutch artists in the early 1990's as an environmentally safer alternative to resin. It was originally used to create large sculptures for carnival floats. Once you try it you'll see why it has become the leading textile hardener/cloth sculpting medium worldwide. .

In 2007 www.paverpol.ca was set up by the importer and distributor of Paverpol for Canada to provide information on Paverpol and to keep you informed where a workshop can be booked, find new ideas, where Paverpol can be purchased, events involving Paverpol, etc.
