Say hello to Material Library of India — a trailblazing research and design consultancy transforming industrial waste into groundbreaking materials. With nearly a decade of expertise, MLI has redefined how we perceive waste, turning it into a resource for sustainable innovation.

Bella Bertoni, Futures Lab Strategist:

“As one of our partners in the 2024 ‘A Synergy of Intelligences’ program, MLI brings a powerful perspective on the intersection of culture, circularity, and material design. Their commitment to bridging traditional practices with modern solutions makes them a perfect fit for the Futures Lab’s mission to envision and advocate for resilient futures.”

At the Futures Lab, we champion diverse voices and approaches to address the urgent challenges of today. MLI’s work exemplifies this ethos, showing how material innovation can drive both environmental regeneration and cultural expression.
