Aguahoja by Mediated Matter showcases tunable water-based biocomposite structures Materials
One of the primary ecological concerns of our time is plastic consumption and waste. Of the plastic we use on a day-to-day basis, less than 10% is recycled, with the rest going into landfills and, as it becoming increasingly clear, the ocean. In addition to curbing plastic consumption and reducing what we use, there is also a growing effort to find sustainable alternatives to the ecologically taxing material. One such effort is coming out of MIT, where the Mediated Matter lab is developing a technology for 3D printing water-based biopolymer composites.

The growing adoption of clear aligners—the market was reportedly worth over $2 billion in 2019—is due in no small part to 3D printing, a technology which has enabled orthodontic labs and specialist companies to achieve customization on a mass scale.
