Medical devices contribute to the carbon footprint generated by the healthcare sector. The development of implants and biomaterials using recycled waste materials promotes sustainable advances in tissue engineering. Additively manufactured (AM) bone-substituting biomaterials with multifunctional properties, e.g., biodegradability, antibacterial and osteogenic potential, can contribute to sustainable healthcare.

Sustainable sources of raw materials for additive manufacturing of bone-substituting biomaterials
The need for sustainable development has never been more urgent, as the world continues to struggle with environmental challenges, such as climate change, pollution, and dwindling natural resources. The use of renewable and recycled waste materials as a source of raw materials for biomaterials and tissue engineering is a promising avenue for sustainable development.
