Avoclaydo & Circularity workshop

Avoclaydo & Circularity workshop

After days of inspiring guest talks at BITZ unibz fablab on biomaterial futures and material innovation, we move into hands-on exploration. 

 Avoclaydo & Circularity takes place in the kitchen lab, where participants cook and experiment with a biomaterial starting from the avocado seed. Together, we learn a shared recipe and explore circular design principles through material-driven practice.

FABRAD in fablab

FABRAD in fablab

FABRAD is now available in fablab. The first free cargo bike rental service for unibz students and employees 🚲

Pick it up at the fablab, use it for transportation, and safely return it. With this service, we’re promoting car-free mobility and helping to reduce COâ‚‚ emissions. âś…

The FABRAD is not just an ordinary bicycle but an XYZ CARGO TRIKE which is versatile, robust, and easy to ride. Weighing only 34 kg, it’s one of the lightest three-wheeled cargo bikes available. This battery powered bicycle allows you to transport heavier loads with ease! 📦

The FABRAD is an initiative by the Competence Centre for Sustainability, aiming to promote the transition to a more sustainable South Tyrol. We invite you to learn more about the start of this new service for and with the unibz community. 🔄
