Bam is looking to roll out its 3D-printer concrete production capability to the UK and is in talks with Heathrow about using it on the airport’s expansion, Construction News can reveal.

 .

The contractor opened a concrete 3D-printing factory in Eindhoven, Netherlands, in January and is now working on the world’s longest 3D-printed bridge for the city of Nijmegen. Royal Bam is now looking to use its expertise in other markets.

Bam Infraconsult innovation adviser Jeroen Nuijten, told CN :

 .

“We are talking to different customers. For example, London Heathrow has a huge amount of work that needs to be done [on the expansion], as well as a big problem with how to do it logistically. “They are in the process of creating a tender, and we’ll see if we are [selected as] a partner for them.”
