Technology & Products
Key Products
Full-service construction and civil engineering; on-site 3D concrete printing (3DCP) for structural elements (load-bearing walls, beams, columns); precast and prefabrication; BIM-enabled project delivery; property development via subsidiary Aurum Land.
Technological Advantage
Deep integration with NUS research (Centre of Construction 3D Printing Research); proprietary printable concrete mixes optimized for structural performance; partnerships with BCA and NAMIC for regulatory pathway; ability to deploy large-scale 3DCP (5m height, 10m arm) on live construction sites; development of low-carbon mixes using 60% recycled glass powder.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
A century-old construction leader integrating 3D concrete printing (3DCP) into real-world structural applications — reducing manpower by 40%+, material usage by 30%, and enabling formwork-free complex geometries for the built environment.
How They Differentiate
Unlike pure-play 3DCP companies, Woh Hup is a century-old, top-tier construction firm with $715M+ annual revenue, deploying 3DCP as an integrated capability within large-scale commercial projects (not just housing). They focus on structural load-bearing elements (not just non-structural) and have direct regulatory pathway via BCA partnership in Singapore.
