Market Trends

Trend - Researchers from universities and construction-focused startups are developing new methods or materials for 3D printing in the architectural space. This is leading to brick, wood, and glass solutions for customizable, scalable home home construction with a reduced environmental impact.

Insight - While home construction companies have become quick and efficient at building homes at-scale, particularly when the homes share similar designs, these companies often receive backlash due to the environmental impact of the large gas-powered construction vehicles, the excess materials, and the damage caused to the surrounding area. This has caused companies to invest in solutions for more eco-friendly options that do not compromise on scalability or customization, leading to 3D printed solutions.
