This project was made possible thanks to the funding received under the “Campania Startup 2023” call for proposals, promoted by the Regional Department for Research, Innovation, and Startups (UOD05 – Regione Campania), as part of the Regional Operational Programme FESR 2014–2020 – Specific Objective 1.1 – Action 1.1.3.
This strategic support enabled us to formalize Oniro S.r.l. and initiate the industrial development of our core technology: Foam Additive Manufacturing (FAM), an advanced 3D printing process capable of controlling the internal morphology and density of thermoplastic materials through real-time physical foaming.
The project presented under the Campania Startup 2023 program aimed to demonstrate the potential of mono-material structural components manufactured in a single step, without adhesives or post-processing, offering high mechanical performance and full recyclability. Applications range from lightweight sandwich panels for transportation and aerospace to bio-based foamed parts for sustainable consumer products.
Thanks to this grant, we were able to invest in early-stage prototyping, intellectual property protection, and validation of our approach—laying the foundation for what is now an operating startup with international ambitions and solid technical credibility.
