Closed-loop, sustainable, inclusive factories and processes. A new concept for a factory that does not exist yet: a zero-waste, pollution-free, energy-neutral, closed-loop, natural-oriented, human-centered, socially-oriented, inclusive, fully safe, self-sufficient, self-regenerative factory. A new factory concept that will lead Made in Italy towards the Urban Factory and even to the Factory in Space. Spoke 5 objectives: • Technologies, the resources, the archetypes for designing – and executing – the Circular and Sustainable Factory of the future– based on new regenerative natural-based AM systems in which the asset lifecycle is systematically closed– to allow maximum resources reuse, and rational energy use • Implement laboratories and Proof-of-Concepts for evaluating and transferring to industry the achievable solutions for the Circular and Sustainable Factory of the future
