This work highlights some important points in the bio & eco-manufacturing approach by investigating the use of materials in one of the most southern place on the planet, Puerto Willams, Chile. The planning procedure was developed as a first approach to the territory as was the development of the samples of biocomposites and potential materials to work with in this area. As a result of our experience, this paper discusses both the technological aspects of bio-manufacturing and the social and ecological considerations involved. It also integrates cooperation within an interdisciplinary group of networked laboratories interested in disseminating and contributing to the bio-fabrication design movement in Chile.
