Material openness in 3D construction printing – flexibility that makes the difference

3D printing opens up entirely new avenues for the construction industry – not only in terms of efficiency and automation, but also in the choice of materials used. A key advantage of BOD2 technology: material openness .

What does material openness actually mean?

Material openness means that our COBOD BOD2 3D printer is compatible with a wide variety of concrete mixes – from special dry mixes to classic ready-mix concrete. This means you're not tied to a single material or specific supplier, but can use exactly what works best for your project.

Why is this so important?

Not every construction project is the same – and not every mix is suitable for every application. Thanks to the BOD2's open system architecture, you can use materials that are locally available, economically viable, or ecologically more suitable. This creates planning security, reduces dependencies, and enables more efficient procurement.

In addition, the material openness opens up new design freedom: Depending on the mixture and nozzle configuration, different structures, layer heights and surfaces can be realized – entirely according to your wishes and design idea.

Remain flexible – also in the future

Flexibility is crucial, especially in a changing construction world. New concrete mixes, more sustainable formulations, or specific requirements for load-bearing capacity and surface structure – the BOD2 is prepared for these. Our complete solution is designed in such a way that it can easily integrate new materials.

This is not only a technological advantage, but also a clear competitive advantage for construction companies that want to build in a future-proof and economical way.
