Scalo 5B is a social handicraft factory where crafters, designers, makers and engineers cooperate in designing and producing objects, innovating traditional practices with digital fabrication tools.

Scalo 5B is a space for innovation, creativity, and learning which democratizes access to tools for digital fabrication, education and training to the local community, especially for social purposes, such as urban renovation projects. We provide fabrication tools and skills, as well as community support, to students, crafters, makers, designers and engineers. We support innovative and entrepreneurial thinking, as well as artistic and creative passion, in order to develop employability of young people. Scalo 5B aims at contributing and strengthening local innovation projects, providing prototyping tools and training programs.
