Weber Beamix takes next step in 3D concrete printing

Through this strategic move, Weber Beamix is intensifying its development and production activities in 3D concrete printing. With this, Weber Beamix is also focusing on sustainability, industrialization and digitalization and increasing its ability to serve the market independently.

Independent

Needless to say, Weber Beamix is grateful for its cooperation with BAM from the very beginning. Early entry and first projects have helped BAM to ensure that 3D printing technology has been introduced and accepted as a construction method in the Netherlands and abroad. Weber Beamix is therefore pleased that BAM, as a designer and builder, has indicated that it will continue to use and purchase 3D concrete printing technology when it adds value for its customers. Nevertheless, the acquired independence gives Weber Beamix the opportunity to more easily and quickly bring 3D concrete printing technology to the attention of the entire building industry in the Netherlands.

Firsts 3D concrete printing

In 2017, Weber Beamix and BAM had a world first with the world's first 3D printed concrete bridge in Nijmegen. The partners continued to develop this innovative construction technology, and in 2019 Weber Beamix and BAM opened the first commercial 3D concrete printing plant in Eindhoven. This has led to much knowledge about the digital design process of 3D printing technology and to new applications such as printed formwork. The latest high-profile project to roll out of the factory is Milestone's first 3D printed house, whose tenants received the keys on April 30, 2021.
