Guatemala: Cementos Progreso has entered into a partnership with 3D printer supplier COBOD. The cement producer has opened its new Innovation and Development Centre in Guatemala to contribute to the development of the construction printing industry in Central and South America. The centre is equipped with a COBOD 3D printer which Cementos Progreso plans to use in housing projects which are currently in the 3D modelling phase.
Cementos Progreso industrial designer Emanuel Ovalle said “I am excited to be working with this exceptional 3D concrete printer from COBOD International for our innovation and research project in the region. We are excited about the possibilities that additive manufacturing opens, and with this technology we can build new things and transform the reality in which we live.”
