Bioreceptive Wall

Our latest research is all about sustainability, and we’re thrilled to introduce the bioreceptive wall—a perfect example of how 3D concrete printing can transform facades and bring architecture closer to nature.

This innovative wall is designed to support moss growth on its surface, acting as a natural, evaporative coating. The result is a stunning blend of technology and greenery that not only enhances the look and feel of the building but also fosters a deeper connection with the environment.

For testing, we 3D printed two models—one with a blank surface and another with a patterned texture—which significantly sped up the moss growth process.
