The Costs Of 3D-Printed Houses Will Shock You!
3D printing is something we have all heard off- probably- but did you even think it could have such implications? When I think of 3D-printers, I think of making toys, and maybe casts for people with- for example- a broken arm. But this? I could never have imagined it.

You wanna know the best thing about this house? It only costs a little over 10.000$! That’s insane. It can completely change the house market as we know it! Not only is is super cheap, it is also durable. It can last up to 175 years!
We are the first company to develop a mobile construction 3D printer which is capable of printing whole buildings completely on site.
Also we are people. Engineers, managers, builders and inventors sharing one common idea — to change the construction industry so that millions of people will have an opportunity to improve their living conditions. — Nikita Chen-yun-tai, Founder of Apis Cor
So here it is. A decent home, for an unbelievable price, made in just a day! The house was made in Russia by the 3D-printing company: Apris Cor. But how will this change everything, you may ask? It’s simple. If we can print comfortable cheap houses instantly, why not do this in under developed countries? Why not do this everywhere?
We are ready to be first to start building on Mars- Nikita Chen-yun-tai, Founder of Apis Cor
Apis Cor aims to become the biggest international construction company that solves accommodation problems around the globe. They want to change the general belief that construction can’t be fast, eco-friendly, efficient and reliable- all at once.

A Chinese construction company claims to be able to print up to 10 houses, in just one day! The houses are made from a mixture of cement and construction wast, making the producing costs under $5.000!
The printer itself is 6x6.6M. Which is smaller than I expected, as it is able to print a house. The house is printed in separate parts, and later put together.
The buildings you can see in the video’s will become offices!
Contour Crafting
Now, there is a company in the US, which has a 3D-printer on a railing system. This ensures movability and enables more options! It can move in all angles, so the house can be made in one go. It also takes this company 24 hours to build an entire house.
