Make to Care è nato nel 2016 proprio dalla collaborazione con Maker Faire Rome che da subito ha accolto con entusiasmo la nostra volontà di raccogliere idee che potessero migliorare il quotidiano di chi con coraggio affronta una qualche forma di disabilità. Idee che nascono fuori dai contesti classici dell’innovazione. Negli anni, insieme, abbiamo raccolto centinaia di progetti e prototipi, abbiamo dato voce a spunti davvero rivoluzionari, intercettando, mappando e alimentando l’ecosistema della Patient-driven-Innovation.

Keth, lightweigth sustainability!
Keth is our first moth prototype, built in 2021. It is an extremely light, sustainable boat for which we focused on using as much sustainable materials as possible. In fact we built the mold using linen fiber while for hull and deck we decided to use basalt fiber, that is a mineral recyclable fiber, and a layer of recycled PET as a core for the sandwich. In foils we tried to reduce the percentage of carbon fiber by mixing it with glass fiber layers, a solution we will be using in our next foils as well.
Our hard work has been appreciated, in fact the path we pursued with this project brought us the first prize for design and innovation, manifacturing and speed test in SuMoth Challenge 2021.
Polito Sailing Team
The PoliTo Sailing Team, a group of 90 students from Politecnico di Torino, carries out design, construction and management of Skiff prototypes (also foiling ones) and Moth. The team is divided into 8 Areas which contribute to build innovative and sustainable boats having as main goals: education, research and teamwork.
