La fàbrica del Sol FAB LAB

The Fàbrica del Sol Fab Lab is a public service that empowers members of the public in the use of new digital manufacturing technologies. Within the Fab Lab Network, the actions of this facility are based on sustainability.

The fab lab is located inside Fàbrica del Sol, a City Council building listed as a cultural asset of local interest. The building, which was originally built as part of the Fàbrica Catalana de Gas company’s headquarters, was refurbished to embody the transition from an old industrial culture to a new approach to the use of technologies based on knowledge and respect for the natural energy, matter and water cycles, of which we all form a part.

This further promotes the development at Fàbrica del Sol of projects to help improve people’s quality of life in the area of energy self-sufficiency, as well as projects linked to the circular economy.
