Researchers at Chalmers University in Sweden have developed a biodegradable 3D printing material made from baker's yeast, wood cellulose fibers, seaweed alginate, vegetable glycerol and water. The hydrogel could replace construction materials like plastic, plaster or synthetic textiles - a biodegradable alternative from organic byproducts. https://www.3dnatives.com/en/3d-printing-yeast-12062026/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #MaterialsInnovation

Chinese studio BENTU DESIGN is turning construction demolition waste into a 3D-printable material. Its Inorganic Growth project transforms crushed bricks, concrete, rubble, and plastic into street furniture such as chairs and stools, using 85% recycled waste in a mobile processing unit set up on-site to reduce transport emissions. https://www.3dnatives.com/en/bentu-design-3d-printed-street-furniture-24042026/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #MaterialsInnovation
