Earth Overshoot Day on 29 July marked the point in time in the year when mankind used up nature’s resource budget for an entire year. This means that we are currently using nature 1.75 times faster than the planet’s ecosystems can regenerate. This endangers the future security of our resources.

Additive manufacturing heavily contributes to making production more eco-friendly.

  • Minimization of the use of raw materials and waste during the production process due to material placement only where necessary
  • Reduction of energy consumption and emissions through the ability to update, repair and remanufacture (life cycle optimization) as well as lightweight construction
  • Recycling of materials (especially metal powder)
  • Environmental benefits for the supply chain through on-demand manufacturing and production near to the distribution location

Two examples of projects implemented in member companies:
