Fusion Bionic GmbH

Inspired by nature

After 10 years of intensive collaboration between the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS and the Technical University of Dresden, we offer a unique solution for improving the surface performance of products, applications, and components using our new standard: DLIP – Direct Laser Interference Patterning.

Our technical solution is inspired by natural surfaces such as lotus leaves, shark skin, springtails, and morpho butterflies, which exhibit advanced surface functions such as self-cleaning, anti-icing, antibacterial effects, decoration, resistance reduction, and much more. We transfer these diverse effects to technical surfaces through laser-based surface functionalization.

As a spin-off of Fraunhofer IWS, we founded Fusion Bionic GmbH in April 2021 with a team from science and industry. With more than 20 years of experience in the use of advanced laser technologies, we are redesigning the performance of numerous products. We draw on unique expertise consisting of surface know-how, sophisticated system technology, and a passion for getting the most out of every surface.
