Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

Traditional construction is slow, wasteful, and expensive, taking months to build homes while generating significant material waste. Labor shortages and weather delays further increase costs and timelines.

The Solution

ICON's robotic 3D printing systems (Vulcan, Phoenix) use proprietary Lavacrete concrete to print entire home wall structures in days instead of weeks. BuildOS software translates floor plans into print jobs with real-time precision control.
