Techno-Espace
Clothing Technology Laboratory
Techno-Espace, located at the heart of LaSalle College, is a space for expertise and research intended to meet the needs of companies producing technical clothing and specialized products made of flexible materials*. Its mission is to contribute to the development of Canadian expertise in the technical and specialized clothing sector, by offering a range of consulting services and courses in research, development and design (RD&D).
Working in various sectors of the industry, such as outdoor clothing, uniform, protective clothing and high-performance clothing markets, the Techno-Espace team has managed to develop efficient research mechanisms, which, in turn, have led to increased product functionality and optimized product performance.
* The expression “product made of flexible materials” includes clothing and merchandise made of textile material, although not exclusively so. In fact, the development of products made of flexible materials can extend to products resulting from industrial design which require similar development, construction and prototype stages.
Towards a new generation of specialists
Above all, LaSalle College wants its students to be instilled with a true understanding of their future professions. Techno-Espace has as their mission to share its expertise and offer courses tailored to provide a new generation of qualified workers in the technical and specialized clothing industry. Out of this exclusive collaboration between LaSalle College and Techno-Espace came the program AEC in Technical Clothing Designer (NTC.1T), which is specifically designed to meet the needs of the industry.
This unique program draws its inspiration directly from; sports, outdoor activities, and the skilled trades. Moreover, Techno-Espace’s laboratory gives LaSalle College students access to equipment and the latest applied technologies in this emerging sector.
