3DXB Group, a leading innovator in 3D printing solutions for the construction industry, unveiled today its achievement of a Guinness World Record for the largest 3D-printed villa in the world.

This groundbreaking project signifies a pivotal moment in the UAE construction sector, as 3DXB Group continues to redefine industry norms in Dubai by building this first-ever 3D-printed villa.

“Aligned with the visionary decree No. (24) of 2021 issued by HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, 3DXB GROUP is committed to supporting the country's ambitious goal of constructing 25 percent of buildings using 3D printing technology by 2030,” said Chairman of 3DXB GROUP, Mr. Badar Rashid AlBlooshi. “This global achievement wouldn’t have been attained without the guidance of his highness vision and the instrumental support of our government partners.

“At 3DXB, we are driven by a passion for sustainability and a desire to transform the construction industry through eco-friendly 3D printing solutions," added AlBlooshi. "Our mission is to drive positive change in the industry through innovation and responsible practices.”

The Guinness World Record was achieved by printing a four-meter-high residential villa in one seamless session, located in the Al Awir 1 area of Dubai. The villa, boasting an overall built-up area of 300 square meters is set to become a symbol of technological prowess and sustainable construction practices.

“This Guinness World Record is not just about the sheer height of the structure, but also about the innovative approach of printing a four-meter-high building in one session,” pointed out AlBlooshi. “It is a matter of pride for us to be at the forefront of technological advancements in construction, contributing to the realization of Dubai's 3D Printing Strategy 2030.”

The entire structure of the villa is crafted from locally sourced concrete, embodying a commitment to sustainable practices.

Dubai's 3D Printing Strategy aims to achieve a minimum rate of 25% implementation of 3D printed buildings in the Emirate by 2030. The strategy not only fosters innovation but also offers economic and environmental benefits, including lower construction costs, reduced construction time, and the utilization of sustainable and recycled materials.
