Objective There is a urgent need, jointly acknowledged by EU Member States and Macs, to preserve Textile Heritage. Hence, R&D project-TEXMED- intends: to find out appropriate and eco-sustainable solutions to problems of conservation and restoration of the Euro-Med Textile Heritage; to transfer the project results to the final users. Such ambitious targets will be achieved through: integration of research activities on advanced, different but complementary research topics, simultaneously considered and carried out by a multidisciplinary team; training of curators, restorers, etc. Thus, expected results are: new formulations and innovative technologies (free of toxic and/or harmful solvents) for the conservation and restoration of textiles; non-destructive methodologies for identifying nature, origin, colour, dye and manufacturing of fibres composing textiles; ad hoc treatments toward exhibition of textiles stored at Museums, Art Galleries, etc. in the Euro-Med Area Fields of science engineering and technologymaterials engineeringcolorsengineering and technologymaterials engineeringtextiles Programme(s) FP5-INCO 2 - Programme for research, technological development and demonstration on "Confirming the international role of Community research,1998-2002" Topic(s) Data not available Call for proposal Data not available Funding Scheme CSC - Cost-sharing contracts Coordinator NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL OF ITALY EU contribution No data Address Via Toiano 111 80072 ARCO FELICE Italy See on map Total cost No data Participants (6) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all ISTITUTO PER L'ARTE E IL RESTAURO PALAZZO SPINELLI Italy EU contribution No data Address Borgo Santa Croce 10 50122 FIRENZE See on map Total cost No data SHENKAR COLLEGE Israel EU contribution No data Address Anna Frank Street 12 52526 RAMAT GAN See on map Total cost No data UNIVERSITAT POLITECNICA DE CATALUNYA Spain EU contribution No data Address 11,Colõn 11 08222 TERRASA See on map Total cost No data UNIVERSITE MED BEN ABDALLAH Morocco EU contribution No data Address Route d'Immouzer 30000 FES (ATLAS) See on map Total cost No data UNIVERSITY OF CAIRO Egypt EU contribution No data Address 12311 EL DOQQI See on map Total cost No data YARMOUK UNIVERSITY Jordan EU contribution No data Address Aydoun Street 21163 IRBED See on map Total cost No data
