Bio.3DGREEN has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme under Grant Agreement No. 101174399, within the call on Bio-intelligent Manufacturing Industries. The project runs from May 2025 to October 2028.
Bio.3DGREEN develops a novel, bio-inspired, and bio-based graphene foam (GF) manufacturing platform for high-performance, sustainable components. By replacing fossil-based materials in key industries, the project enables carbon-positive production through a laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) process inspired by nature.
The project combines advanced materials science, bio-inspired design, and sustainable manufacturing practices to create components that are both high-performance and environmentally friendly, pushing the boundaries of next-generation industrial production.
Bio.3DGreen accelerates Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) innovation by providing advanced digital tools and AI-assisted assessment for lifecycle and circularity evaluation of graphene foam products. YLISENSE leads the development of an AI-assisted environmental and sustainability assessment, including a circularity score engine, and oversees Life Cycle Costing (LCC) analysis for GF components.
Our web-based ecosystem empowers product designers and sustainability engineers to implement SSbD principles from day one, combining cutting-edge analytics with seamless workflow integration.
Define and visualize complex life cycle stages with ease, enabling informed decisions across the value chain.
Real-time assessments aligned with regulatory standards (REACH, CLP, etc.), ensuring safe product development.
Full Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and automated Circularity Scoring to measure recyclability and resource loops.
Built-in APIs connect directly with CAD, PLM, and product design data flows for smooth workflow integration.
Team-wide action tracking and version control support transparent sustainability reporting and collaboration.
The Bio.3DGreen project demonstrates how integrating Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) principles with advanced digital tools accelerates sustainable innovation in graphene foam manufacturing. By embedding AI-assisted lifecycle and circularity assessment, the project empowers teams to make data-driven, environmentally responsible decisions.
Key Impacts: The system enables early identification of safety risks during the design phase, ensures standardized reporting aligned with international sustainability benchmarks, and provides quantitative LCA and circularity data to guide decision-making.
Catch safety risks early in the design phase, avoiding costly rework and accelerating product development.
Ensure all assessments comply with international sustainability benchmarks for transparency and compliance.
Replace guesswork with quantitative LCA and circularity data, enabling smarter and more sustainable choices.
