THE FUTURE OF CITIES IS PLASTIC
INSIGHT
MERCEDES-BENZ.io. Catalysts for change.
We believe in technology as a means to make a positive impact in people’s lives. We believe in cities where people, empathy, collaboration and a strong sense of community are top priorities. And we believe we can make a change by helping to solve our cities’ everyday problems. That’s why we’re creating a gigantic 3D printer and bringing plastic back to our mindsets.
IDEA
THE SYMBOL OF CHANGE
.io MATTER is a 3D printer – totally made in Portugal by Mercedes-Benz and tech powerhouse Jack. Its purpose is to collect ideas and produce solutions to solve people’s everyday challenges, whether big or small. From mobility solutions for disabled people to urban furniture that stands out in our city’s landscapes; from bike stations to tactile pavement for the visually impaired, if you can imagine it, .io MATTER can make it. With recycled plastic.
Keeping up with Mercedes-Benz.io’s commitment to sustainable living, every object will be printed by .io MATTER in a blue filament preferebly or whatever other color that fits the project. Always respecting the recycling premise of the project.
