What good are innovative new materials if they cannot be used? The new BioBuild Lab at the TU Delft Green Village aims to change that, with construction that started this week.
The construction sector is highly polluting. Biobased materials, which are derived from renewable biological resources, should offer a solution. But how well do these materials perform in practice? This should become clear in the new test facility.
From the end of 2026, architecture students and researchers, as well as external parties, will be able to use it for experiments, certification tests and the construction of scale models. In addition, the building itself is also part of the experiment, with biobased materials being tested directly in real-life conditions.
