Discover new exhibits, exciting talks, workshops and events for the family. All around raw materials. At Futurium. Raw materials determine our lives.

Mucus is extremely versatile, serving as a lubricant, adhesive or protective barrier inside the body. Its seemingly simple structure makes mucus adaptable and therefore irreplaceable for many bodily functions. Biological mucus is mostly hydrogel and consists of little more than water in molecular chains. If one of the essential mucuses fails, infections and other diseases […]
What do you associate with the word “ocean”? The boundlessness of the water? Bizarre deep-sea creatures? The ideal wave for surfing? Oceans have shaped our planet for billions of years and are the basis of all life. They determine our climate, provide us with oxygen and food. And they connect us – our histories, cultures […]
