This page lists the public support programmes Samylabs takes part in, with their file numbers and funding.
VIVALDI project
Samylabs is developing the VIVALDI project, entitled "Valorisation of ceramic and metallic waste by generating powder for additive manufacturing and other high added value applications". Its main objective is research and development of ceramic and metallic powder material from recycled sources for the additive manufacturing sector.

The consortium is made up of six SMEs — Samylabs, Grupal Art, BCRicular, TMComas, Coldeed and BCN3D — with the external collaboration of technology centres and research groups specialised in each stage of the process: EURECAT, the CSIC through ICV and CENIM, and CIM UPC.
The project is subsidised by CDTI under the MISIONES 2021 call (file number MIP-20211033) and is supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.
