Bio.3DGREEN project: creating a new way to produce bio-based components using graphene foam

By mimicking sponge-like structures found in nature, known for shock absorption and vibration mitigation, Bio.3DGREEN develops and demonstrates a cost-effective, bio-based solution from vegetable oil-derived graphene. This EU-funded project combines biomimetic engineering and laser-based Additive Manufacturing (AM) to generate durable, lightweight components for applications in automotive, aerospace, and shipping sectors. Inspired by biological structures such as trabecular bone and honeycombs, the manufactured parts exhibit high performance even under extreme environmental conditions.

The Bio.3DGREEN project, which was launched at the end of May 2025 and will run for 42 months, brings together 14 partners from Germany, Spain, UK, Greece, Cyprus, Belgium, Italy, Denmark, and Switzerland to develop a new way to produce bio-based components using graphene foam.
