Growth & Milestones
Growth Metrics
In 2023, developed and built Asterix, a custom-made 1-cubic-meter powder bed 3D printer, which came to life at the start of 2024, enabling first prints for Reefs 'R Us. In November 2022, won the CityLab010 competition, securing a subsidy of €81,883 to build the Asterix printer and fund the Reefs 'R Us project. Installed over 100 Purpose-Built Reef structures at Oostvoornse Lake to create the Goby Reef. Currently testing Purpose-Built Reefs at Deltares with TU Delft researchers.
Major Milestones
["Successfully printed prototype structures with 'Idefix'","Plans to build a new mobile printer called 'Asterix'"]
