3D CONCRETE PRINTING
3D PRINTING OF BUILDING MATERIALS
The industrialization and automation of construction are among the key trends shaping the global construction industry.
Rising labor costs, labor shortages, and the need for rapid construction are driving the shift toward automated production.
Industrial 3D printers for concrete printing open up new possibilities for manufacturing concrete products, architectural elements, and prefabricated building structures. They enable the automation of production processes, increased productivity, reduced costs, and consistent product quality.
The prefabricated construction sector is particularly promising, where elements are manufactured in a factory setting and delivered to the site for rapid assembly. The combination of prefab technologies and 3D concrete printing sets a new standard for efficient production.
CRAFTRUDER is advancing the field of digital concrete product manufacturing using next-generation industrial 3D printers, making modern technologies accessible to manufacturers, developers, and entrepreneurs.
The automation of construction production is already a reality, shaping the new construction industry.

CRAFTRUDER’s competitive advantage lies in its combination of mobile production and an engineering-oriented construction system.
This technology enables the production of wall blocks and other concrete elements both in a stationary production facility and directly adjacent to the construction site. This significantly reduces logistics costs, minimizes inventory, lowers the risk of product damage during transport, and ensures a continuous supply of structural elements in accordance with the construction schedule.
Unlike traditional wall materials, the CRAFTRUDER system allows for the formation of blocks with complex internal geometries, the incorporation of channels for utility lines, and the reinforcement and concreting of load-bearing elements. The structural design may include monolithic reinforced concrete columns, reinforcement belts, stiffening diaphragms, and floor slabs in accordance with project requirements.
As with ceramic, concrete, or other large-format blocks, the system’s suitability for multi-story construction is determined not by the block’s manufacturing method, but by the results of engineering calculations, material properties, and building code requirements. Thanks to this, CRAFTRUDER technology can be integrated into a wide range of construction projects—from single-family homes and cottage communities to multi-unit, commercial, and public buildings.
In fact, CRAFTRUDER transforms the construction site into a local digital production center, providing the developer with the necessary building components directly at the project site.

ПCRAFTRUDER printers use specially prepared fine-grained concrete mixes designed for 3D printing.
The basic mix design includes:
Composition by weight (dry components)
• M500 cement — 21%
• sand — 42%
• 2–5 mm crushed stone — 37%
• water: W/C = 0.396 (relative to cement weight)
• plasticizer — according to the technical specifications of the selected product (typically 0.3–1.0% of cement weight)
process additives.
Composite reinforcement is recommended for reinforcing printed structures.
We assist with the selection and adaptation of mixes to the customer’s local materials and provide recommendations on adjusting the mix design for stable production.

Yes. The blocks are designed with internal cavities that can be filled with expanded polystyrene, aerated concrete, or other thermal insulation materials. This significantly reduces heat loss and improves the building’s energy efficiency.
Yes. Whether it can be used depends on the design, calculations, and building code requirements.
When properly designed and manufactured, their service life is comparable to that of traditional reinforced concrete and concrete structures.
The construction industry is transitioning from manual processes to automated production. Those who are first to enter this niche gain a strategic advantage in the market.

CRAFTRUDER is a Ukrainian manufacturer of 3D construction printers and solutions for the automation of concrete product manufacturing
CRAFTRUDER (since 2018) is one of the pioneers of the Ukrainian 3D concrete printing industry and a manufacturer of 3D construction printers. Founded on the basis of the engineering company CONCRETE-FLOW in Dnipro, the company has evolved from modernizing its first prototype to creating its own technological platform for the mass production of concrete products using 3D printing.
The first commercial projects focused on the production of artisanal concrete fences and landscaping elements. Subsequently, technological advancements enabled the company to move on to creating full-fledged construction systems and next-generation structures.
Over the years, we have completed over 1,000 projects and commissions. Among our landmark projects are the Alley of Remembrance for Heroes in Petrykivka, featuring over 120 memorial steles and a 7-meter bell tower, as well as three residential buildings in Uzhhorod, constructed using our own 3D-printed concrete blocks. A new residential project in Lviv is scheduled for 2026.
CRAFTRUDER develops not only equipment but also a comprehensive construction system adapted to its own production technology. The company is actively expanding its international presence through equipment supply and the development of partnership projects in various countries.
CRAFTRUDER’s goal is to become a global leader in industrial 3D concrete printing. The company’s operations are founded on engineering excellence, innovation, quality, automation, and long-term partnerships.
