PERI 3D Construction
PERI 3D Construction is the PERI Group?s additive construction division that supplies gantry-based 3D concrete printers, auxiliary hardware, on-site assistance systems such as 3D MatControl, and services for teams adopting large-scale printed concrete construction.
Public press material describes the Wavehouse office building in Heidelberg, branded as Europe?s largest 3D-printed building at the time of completion, with roughly 170 hours of printing time for the facade work and handover around January 2024 (PERI 3D Construction, 2024). That example illustrates how the division combines printer hardware, planning support, and training for field delivery.
The product stack marketed on peri3dconstruction.com includes the COBOD BOD2 gantry printer, the DREIHAUS serial housing concept, the 3D MatControl assistance system, and a broader service portfolio for adoption programmes. The site positions the parts as one integrated offer rather than isolated machine sales.
Construction teams in housing, commercial, and experimental programmes appear in the news section, including comparisons between printed and conventional apartment blocks in France. The vendor also exhibits at major trade events such as bauma, signalling ongoing hardware and workflow updates.
Buyers should expect quote-based procurement, regional contact through PERI?s sales network, and project-specific training. File exchange and structural design still depend on your engineers? BIM and CAD toolchain; PERI supplies the printing ecosystem and field methods for the concrete placement phase.
