Almascience

AlmaScience is a collaborative innovation R&D lab and a technology incubator for sustainable functional materials and green electronics. Our solutions provide an answer to the increasing demand by industry for cost-effective, easy-to-produce, high-performance technology solutions that have a low environmental footprint. We do this by transforming natural materials such as cellulose and paper into functional electronic devices – and more – using eco-friendly, ultra-low waste production methods. Our approach focuses on industry 4.0 compatible, locally produced, printable, energy-efficient, and fully recyclable alternatives to traditional electronic devices, thus preventing e-waste and reducing costs and unwanted dependencies on unreliable supply chains. AlmaScience is supported by the Portuguese Innovation Agency (ANI) and collaborates with leading academic and industrial partners including CENIMAT, NOVA FCT, NOVA.ID, The Navigator Company, Raiz, INCM, Firmo, Clara Saúde, and the Municipality of Almada to fulfill our research and social objectives.
