What kind of products could be technically possible, not considering the economics?
What is the needed manufacturing of the products?
3. Customers and end users
• from idea to customer
• building process
• product development
• design
What are the drivers to enhance the market?
How important for the customers is, that the material is recycled. Are there any special needs for the technology?
