Figulo, a manufacturing company from Boston, developed a new 3D printing technology that improves the resolution of printed ceramics .
They manufacture uniquely designed, functional, decorative, custom ceramic objects from their own collection and from files uploaded to their website and other channels (like Shapeways, i.materialise and Sculpteo). They sell these designs directly to consumers and businesses. Their service includes firing and glazing of the ceramics and they are open to development of custom glazes and finishes.
This technology is really amazing because it takes away a lot of the limitations this material used to have. Now it becomes more and more interesting to artists, designers and architects to use.
They are currently on VoltCrowd, a crowd funding initiative, because they want to expand their business and technology. So if you believe in Figulo, make a pledge on their page!
Here’s a video of their crowd funding campaign:
