3DXB Group, a leading provider of innovative 3D printing construction technologies, presented its insights into decarbonisation in construction at the Energy & Sustainability Summit, held recently at the Habtoor Grand Resort in Dubai.

Endorsed by the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy, the 3rd Energy & Sustainability Summit served as a pivotal platform for industry leaders, government officials, and stakeholders to collaborate on advancing sustainability efforts post COP28.

This year's summit emphasised the urgent need for the construction and energy sectors to accelerate decarbonisation initiatives and achieve Net Zero goals.

“Dubai has issued decree regulating the use of 3D printing in the construction sector in the emirate. The decree intends to promote Dubai as a regional and international hub for 3D printing technology,” said Badar Rashid AlBlooshi, Chairman of 3DXB Group.

“The legislation aims to improve efficiencies in construction projects, increase the competitiveness of the local industry, reduce waste and attract leading companies in the sector to Dubai as part of a larger plan to spur economic growth and promote the adoption of advanced technologies in the emirate.

“Our participation in such events go in line with contributing in implementing this decree.”

Bassel Khaled, Technical & Factory Manager at 3DXB, shared insights as a distinguished panellist in the discussion on 'Sustainable Materials and Decarbonising Construction Sites’.

The panel addressed crucial topics including reducing embodied carbon, identifying alternative materials, and exploring innovative technologies like 3D printing for sustainable development.

“In our pursuit of sustainable development, prioritising eco-friendly materials in supply chains is crucial,” remarked Khaled.

“At 3DXB, we leverage our network to ensure a steady flow of sustainable products, thus contributing to industry-wide decarbonisation efforts.”

Khaled also emphasised the transformative potential of 3D printing and modular construction technologies in advancing sustainable development, highlighting their efficiency gains and resource savings.

“Technologies like 3D printing offer opportunities to streamline processes and minimise waste,” he said.  

“These innovations hold the key to unlocking sustainable development globally, and 3DXB is at the forefront of their implementation.

“At 3DXB, we are committed to pioneering sustainable solutions that drive positive change in the industry, and this summit provided an invaluable platform to exchange ideas and strategies with fellow thought leaders,” said Khaled. – TradeArabia News Service
