Emaar Properties announced plans to build its first 3D printed home in Dubai, the first step towards Emaar's ambition to be a leading adopter of advanced construction technologies.
Following a global competition in which the world's leading 3D printing technology providers participated, Emaar has awarded the contract to 3D-print a model home in Arabian Ranches III. The construction will be facilitated using a local contractor with the goal of building in-country competencies in 3D printing for the realty sector.
Building the first 3D-printed model home underlines Emaar's commitment to adopt innovative construction methods to build faster and at a lower cost while achieving higher design and architectural flexibility. Emaar's use of 3D printing technology will also promote the sustainable use of resources by reducing waste of construction materials and noise pollution.
Upon completion, the 3D-printed model home will serve as a reference point for investors to further understand the concept and appreciate the value add that advanced technology brings to the real estate sector.
Mohamed Alabbar, chairman of Emaar Properties, said: "Our plans to embrace 3D printing of homes is an integral part of our digital-first and customer-first strategy. Through this, we are not only positioning ourselves as an early adopter of advanced technology but also creating long-term value for our customers as 3D printing brings numerous advantages, such as reduced cost of construction, more efficient use of materials and higher levels of sustainability."
"With 3D printing technology, to be implemented locally using international expertise, we are also supporting the vision of the leadership to build 'Smart and Sustainable Cities' that are tech-driven and meet the aspirations of the new generation of customers. It will also help accelerate the innovation ecosystem in Dubai, inspiring start-ups to contribute towards advanced construction technology."
