TOUGH AND TUFF — A Robust and Beautiful BE@RBRICK Crafted from Aluminum-Deposited Fiberglass
TEXALIUM is a material made by depositing aluminum onto fiberglass. Developed by the American fiberglass manufacturer HEXCEL, it is known for being lightweight, highly resilient, and possessing the beautiful appearance of aluminum fibers.
In 2019, MEDICOM TOY collaborated with AMIREX, a carbon think tank that develops luxury products under the concept of "playing with materials," to release a silver "BE@RBRICK 1000% TEXALIUM." It garnered attention not only in Japan but also internationally.
The new model, "BE@RBRICK GOLD TEXALIUM 1000%," is a hybrid material of gold Texalium and dry carbon. The dry carbon, molded using an autoclave (large pressure vessel), is a masterpiece finished by hand, piece by piece.
