"3D printing exquisite wooden products from forest resources."

Contact

The Idea origin story

"With 800 acres of idle forest land at my disposal, I aim to revitalize this resource by entering the environmental industry. Drawing upon business strategies learnt from my father's successful enterprise, I plan to create high-quality wooden products using a unique 3D printing process developed in the US. This process utilizes waste wood and turns it into delicate and beautiful items that mimic various tree textures like rosewood and mahogany while being ecologically responsible."

The Mission

"Transforming waste wood into exquisite products by 3D printing, preserving forests while innovating in the environmental industry."

Clients

Our app is for all ages, targeting users globally. Our philosophy attracts customers with quality service and inspiring features.

Problems we solve

Client’s problem

Our platform revolutionizes the 3D wood printing industry in China by transforming waste into quality products, offering unique design freedom and facilitating on-demand production to minimize material wastage and environmental contamination.

Confirmation of problem

the excessive waste of wood and lack of unique design solutions in China negatively affect both the environment and regional economy.

Solution

PitchBob’s recommendation: We address deforestation and waste by enabling users to recycle broken 3D printed wooden products or repurpose them for new prints.

Our technologies

This solution is based on technologies

The advanced sun panels

How it works

PitchBob’s recommendation: Forust uses waste products to 3D print items mimicking real trees, revitalizing wood waste into useful objects.

Value for the client

PitchBob’s recommendation: With Forust, enjoy vast design flexibility and the ability to treat prints like traditional wood products.

My name’s

Anran Weng

My key role in the product

I was responsible for overseeing the upgrading of the maternity ward and identifying financing opportunities, product promotions.

Team size and key members

Currently solo, seeking technical support. My father's contacts in China will enable quick team building once we secure financing.

Competitors

Competitors

A potential competitor could be 3D Hubs. They offer online 3D printing services which encompass a variety of materials and technologies including wood.

Our Advantages

Leveraging China's cost-effective labor, we source inexpensive wood chips and discards nationwide–from mills, recyclers to academic institutions–and customize them for high-quality wood production.

Business model

We offer Basic and Pro services for diverse users. Basic offers pre-designed wooden products, while Pro allows customized designs.

Traction

Currently in negotiations with printer companies and domestic app developers to transform a promising business idea into tangible progress.

The vision-aligned, fully functional app is under successful construction. The arrival of the necessary equipment initiates the testing phase to ensure a reliable end product for launching.

Metrics

Transitioning from seed cotton to timber products, we're optimizing our 800-acre forest and idle plant. Future plans involve a partnership with a US printer manufacturer.

Incorporation

Our company incorporated in

Hubei

Key risks

PitchBob’s recommendation: Key risks involve environmentally hazardous processes in turning waste wood into reusable materials, and the cost of recycling. Quality, texture, and effects of replication need more testing.
