The current state‐of‐the‐art in applying self‐healing/self‐repair concepts to structural high‐performing fiber reinforced polymer composite materials relies on several approaches: Inserting healing capsules (left), vascules (middle), or using intrinsically healing matrices (right). Achievements, processing routes, resulting structural properties, healing assessment methods and challenges for industrialization are reviewed by Amaël Cohades, Ian Bond, Véronique Michaud and co‐workers in article number 1800177 .
