The Biomaterial Guide
Gain unique insiders on the world of biomaterials
From the author
Over the past years there has been an increasing demand for a material transition in products due to the global issues such as the decline of resources, the rising CO2 emissions and the vastly growing landfills.
With a shift in consumer behaviour, from buying the first thing that is accessible to buying sustainable, even the most polluting brands are questioning how we may design for a more sustainable future. Material, being one of the first and most defining elements in the creation of a product, impacting design, sourcing and manufacturing, plays a key role in this sustainable future.
I am part of the movement that aims to share my experiences in material research to help the biomaterial development further.
