FUTURE CUSTOMISATION AND CONSUMER INTERACTION
The trend is clear: the most demanding markets are already asking for products that can be deeply customized, according to needs that are expressed with increasingly sophisticated information. Technologies are evolving: Data Analysis, Generative Design, Additive Manufacturing, IOT, advanced and flexible logistics. In the future, consumers will not only handle, wear and use materials… Speakers will try to answer questions like:Is “Human Product Interaction” the future of customization? Will consumers still buy products or rather concepts and designs? How is the industry responding to these evolutions?
PERFORMANCE AND PROTECTION
Consumers are more and more focused on the functionality of products that they use and wear. They are more active than in the past. Products will need to be appropriate for these evident evolutions. What should materials be like in order to respond to these trends? Will the real innovations in the future still be tied to the aesthetics of what exists today or to the way of imagining, conceiving, manufacturing and marketing new materials and products? New services? Is materials functionalization the key to success?
CIRCULAR FASHION
Recycling and reconverting materials is one of the most visible interests of consumers in the Z generation.Brands are embracing a “circular economy” model, evolving towards products that will be designed to be disassembled and materials that will be 100% recyclable more than once. The shift towards a transparent and circular fashion implies radical technological and design evolutions as well the emergence of new business models and supply chains.
BIO-INSPIRED MATERIAL AND NEW PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES
“Copying nature to design a better world”… There is an evident growth in expectations from the consumer market for Bio-Inspired products. Fashion, design and automotive industries have always used many materials of biological origin (leather is a prime example). Today, frontier technologies are beginning to be able to reproduce them. Today, consumers want to have low impact, smart, advanced materials that do wonderful things for the body, their home and place of work. Are Bio-inspired materials the response to this need?
