Architectural Concrete
Precision-cast concrete that supports ambitious design while adapting to real-world conditions. We streamline complex builds with materials that are consistent, repeatable, and ready to perform—whether poured onsite or off. It’s architectural concrete that stays flexible where it counts, and solid where it matters.
Novel and unique structures that inspire.
We expand what's possible with architectural concrete, removing traditional constraints to deliver greater design freedom—quickly, precisely, and reliably.

Liberate the curve
Traditional formwork limits design possibilities, but our 3D concrete printing technology unlocks your creativity. Architects can explore intricate forms and complex geometries that would be too costly or difficult with conventional methods, bringing bold visions to life with precision and ease.
Quality and Performance
Unlike traditional methods prone to human error, 3D printing ensures consistent, high-quality results. Every project is tested by third-party labs certified in CSA and ASTM standards, ensuring top-tier structural integrity and compliance.

OUR IMPACT
Our approach delivers an average cost of under $300K per unit (costs exclude land, servicing, softcosts) showcasing that robots can be integrated affordably while meeting and exceeding the Ontario Building Code.
With 26 rental units, including 30% affordable, we surpass industry standards.
Our project achieves a 20% reduction in energy intensity and greenhouse gas emissions, and our all-electric buildings ensure zero greenhouse gas energy consumption.
By creating wall assemblies with R-30 thermal performance and consolidating three trades into one, we effectively address the labor shortage, demonstrating the transformative potential of robotics in construction.

Cost and Time Certainty
Formwork is labor-intensive and time-consuming, often requiring weeks for setup and teardown. Our automated 3D printing process gives time and material certainty, and can reduce project durations from months to weeks. This streamlined workflow translates into significant cost savings, reducing both labor expenses and overall construction costs.
Case Study: Delivering the Client’s Vision
Pain
An architect was tasked with designing a standout feature for a high-profile client. After creating an amazing design with flowing, organic curves, they were disappointed to learn that the intricate formwork needed would exceed the budget. Faced with the possibility of scaling back, the architect feared disappointing the client.
Gain
The architect discovered 3D concrete printing (3DCP), which allowed them to realize their ambitious design without the high costs of traditional methods. With robotic printing, the project was delivered with speed and precision, staying within budget and schedule. The client was thrilled, and the architect successfully maintained the integrity of their vision.
