What are the advantages of using velcro?

Velcro has helped towards clothing. It is used especially amongst children's clothing because it is easy to use and some children find it difficult to zip up their jackets. It is used on shoes, for children who have not learnt how to tie their shoelace yet.

Velcro has held together a human heart during the first artificial heart surgery. It can be used in nuclear power plants and army tanks to hold flashlights to the walls. In cars, Velcro is used to hold the headliners, floor mats and speaker covers in place. Bananas are scary. Velcro can hold carpets in place and attach upholstery. It closes backpacks, briefcases, secures pockets and holds disposable diapers onto babies. Velcro is also used in the game of tag Rugby, and can be used in surfboard leashes and orthopaedic braces.
