Office building in Selsingen, 2025
A modern, two-story office building has been 3D printed in Selsingen. It is the first 3D-printed building in Northern Germany and was independently implemented by our client MATTHÄI.
Matthäi is using our comprehensive, all-in-one solution in a rental model. This means it's a rental project where the technology is provided for a limited time. After a brief training session on the machine, the two-story new company headquarters was built directly by a small team from Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau. Only a supervisor from PERI 3D Construction was on-site to provide support with any technical questions.
The planned printing time was approximately 105 hours, using Holcim's 3D-printable building material TectorPrint. The building was occupied at the beginning of July 2026.

IMPRESSIONS OF THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
Big building. Big goals.
Big on ideas. Big on construction.
An office building with impressive dimensions is being built in Selsingen: 7.40 meters high, 22.50 meters long and 13.50 meters deep – spread over two floors.
Technology that sets standards.
Printing is done with the COBOD BOD2 – a gantry printer in an impressive configuration measuring 24 meters long, 15 meters wide and 9 meters high.
Self-built – with 3D printing.
What's special about this project: Our partner received intensive training directly from us in Weißenhorn and is now independently constructing the two-story building using 3D printing. Only a supervisor from PERI 3D Construction is on site to provide support.
Impressions from the construction site
This is how a pioneering building is created – layer by layer. A total of 105 hours of pure printing time demonstrate how quickly and efficiently large-scale construction is possible today with 3D printing.
Impressions of the completed building
In July 2026, the Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau team moved into their new office building. The building impresses with its distinctive architecture, individual interior design, and unique, innovative charm.
Requirements and solutions
Requirements
One of the biggest challenges of the project was the ambitious schedule. Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau approached us just a few months before printing began to discuss the possibilities for their first project. Since the new office building for the turnkey builders was scheduled for completion by the end of the year, no time could be wasted. In addition, the Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau employees had no experience with 3D building printing and needed to be trained in operating the printer beforehand.
Solutions
The experienced planning firm Mense-Korte, together with the architectural firm Schulenburg, delivered a building design that impressed with both its distinctive architecture and its excellent printability. The joint planning resulted in a tight construction schedule that envisioned printing in just 105 printing hours over a period of just a few months. To further save time, part of the training for employees was conducted at our headquarters in Weißenhorn, while another part was conducted directly on site at the start of the project. This allowed operators to learn how to operate the system under realistic on-site conditions.
Customer benefit
In addition to an impressive new company headquarters, this project gives Matthäi a clear advantage over its competitors: strong, in-house experience in 3D building printing. True to the Matthäi Group's motto, "We build the future," Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau focuses on innovative projects to offer its customers the best possible range of services in the long term. The construction processes and results have convinced Matthäi Schlüsselfertigbau of the benefits of 3D printing, leading them to establish their own 3D concrete printing division in partnership with PERI 3D Construction.
