Objective:

The 3S4Leather project focuses on the development of Sustainable and Sensorized Solutions based on leather waste through Additive Manufacturing (AM). It is founded on two main objectives: the valorization of leather waste generated by the tanning industry and the development of new sustainable and sensorized solutions for the footwear industry, based on leather residues and produced using additive manufacturing. In this context, new formulations will be developed and adapted to two additive technologies: Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) and Selective Laser Sintering.
