Energy and Resource-Efficient 3D Construction Printer
In Jordan, Qudra Concrete Factory is transforming the local construction landscape by adopting innovative methods to overcome traditional challenges such as long timelines and high material waste. The company saw an opportunity to shift to a faster, more efficient process to stay ahead in a competitive industry.
Through the Green Economy Financing Facility (GEFF) in partnership with Bank Al Etihad, Qudra Concrete Factory received financing of US$ 658,209 to purchase a state-of-the-art 3D construction printer. This innovative technology allows walls to be printed directly on-site, eliminating the need for formwork, reducing the number of workers required, and using significantly less raw material than conventional concrete pouring.
The new technology has streamlined the entire building process. Projects that once took months can now be completed in a fraction of the time. Beyond speed, the environmental impact is significant: by moving away from conventional methods, the company reduces construction waste by up to 60 per cent and avoids more than 534 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually.
The total investment of US$ 658,209, supported by a 10 per cent cashback incentive of US$ 65,821, is helping the company deliver projects at lower costs while strengthening its financial position.
Qudra’s investment demonstrates how adopting new technology can lower costs, improve efficiency, and reduce environmental impact, helping shape the future of construction in Jordan.
The Green Economy Financing Facility (GEFF) in Jordan is developed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and is supported by the European Union (EU) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF).
