ABB GoFa fabricates biodiversity façade modules in TUM research project
A Technical University of Munich research project used ABB GoFa for additive manufacturing and post-processing of clay habitat modules for an experimental biodiversity façade.
Evidence notes
- The interdisciplinary TUM team developed climate-sensitive façade modules from 3D-printed ceramic clay.
- GoFa supported precise material deposition and post-processing of the fragile elements.
- The approximately 100-module façade prototype was inaugurated in Munich in July 2025 and entered a three-year monitoring period.
