Abstract
Industrial manufacturing of materials may achieve, not only increased profit, but also reduced waste generation, energy consumption, and global greenhouse gas emissions through additive manufacturing (AM). This chapter puts into perspectives the ideas and benefits of using 3D printing technology in the manufacture of durable and sustainable materials, enabling high-value reuse toward the promotion of a better cyclic economy.
