Innovation in materials:

We work on the creation of new materials and the optimization of existing ones, ensuring that they meet the growing demands for performance and sustainability.

Improvement of material properties:

We help companies develop materials with superior mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance characteristics, tailored to specific sectors such as construction and advanced manufacturing.

Material sustainability:

We develop more environmentally friendly, reusable, and recyclable materials in response to the growing demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly products.

Material validation:

We conduct extensive laboratory tests to evaluate both how new materials perform under different conditions of use and their long-term durability.

Thanks to our knowledge and skills:

ADVANCED MATERIALS

  • Chemical and structural characterization of a wide range of materials (ceramics, composites, glass, metals, etc.) using an extensive array of techniques.
  • Advanced materials: functional coatings, membranes and filters for water treatment, new materials for the energy and aerospace industries, etc.
  • Digital printing on different substrates (glass, ceramics, plastic, textiles, etc.) and for different industrial sectors (construction, automotive, cosmetics, medicine, packaging, etc.).
  • Additive manufacturing: design, manufacture and development of customized materials.
  • Recycling of waste from different industrial sectors: characterization and treatment for incorporation into new production processes (industrial symbiosis).
  • Recovery of critical raw materials from electronic waste.
  • Circularity and sustainability analysis of products. Environmental communication: environmental product declarations (EPDs), eco-labeling, carbon and water footprints, etc.
