3D Concrete Printing at the Heart of Research: The BCRC at the Forefront
Because 3D concrete printing can also serve as a powerful research tool, the Belgian Ceramic Research Centre (BCRC) has taken a closer look at this innovative technology. As a research, expertise, and analysis center specializing in ceramics, the BCRC has set itself the challenge of combining tradition and new technologies by integrating 3D concrete printing into its work. Sandra Abdelouhab, Program Manager for “Refractory and Clay-Based Materials,” shares her experience with the MiniPrinter and presents the center’s current projects and future outlook.

The Custom Approach: Termix-3D’s 10mm Aggregate Micro-Concrete
Material as a Driver of Innovation At Constructions-3D, innovation goes beyond the machine—it’s also in the material. Every formulation, test, and mix is designed to precisely meet the challenges of 3D concrete printing. This pursuit of the ideal material drives our teams, especially in our lab, where researchers and technicians develop custom mortars and concretes with tailored properties. Recently, our efforts have focused on a new challenge: developing a micro-concrete incorporating aggregates up to 10 mm. This significant advancement opens the door to improved mechanical performance, greater ecological efficiency, and enhanced compatibility with the industrial needs of our clients.
