In 4D-Mater, we develop smart materials and products with unique capabilities. Our vision is to invent and produce advanced materials of the future. We develop a beyond-the-state-of-the-art, economic viable smart, biodegradable & plantable materials, under the name “GrowMaterials”. Grow Foams present very low thermal conductivity tailored density, high strength and they will challenge and replace fossil-based materials, such as polystyrene, in high impact industries for achieving decarbonization goals, and protect land & water from solid wastes using principles from biology. Grow foams could find applications in building sector, as well as in packaging.
