About Featured Expert: COBOD International 

Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, COBOD International develops large-scale robotic 3D construction printing systems for concrete building applications. The company specializes in industrial additive manufacturing technologies that improve efficiency, consistency, and scalability in the construction sector.

Cobod International logo appearing on Robotics Industry MonthlyCOBOD is best known for its modular gantry-based 3D printers, including the BOD2 (Building-on-Demand) system, widely recognized as one of the most commonly deployed construction 3D printers globally. The BOD2 platform is designed for precision layer-by-layer concrete deposition. It can be configured for a wide range of build sizes, making it suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects. Its modular architecture allows systems to be expanded or reconfigured to meet project-specific requirements.

The company’s printing solutions integrate digital design data directly into automated construction workflows, enabling consistent execution of complex geometries and repeatable building processes. COBOD’s technology supports adaptive print speeds and controlled material placement, helping reduce material waste and improve construction predictability. The company also develops proprietary software and automation systems that connect digital building models with real-time printing operations, supporting quality control and construction analytics during the build process.

COBOD’s printers are used for a variety of concrete construction applications, including residential housing, public buildings such as schools and offices, industrial facilities, and structural components for infrastructure projects. In the renewable energy sector, COBOD’s technology has been used to 3D print concrete foundations and bases for wind installations, enabling faster on-site construction and reducing logistical complexity compared to traditional methods.

The company’s systems are deployed across multiple regions worldwide, with installations spanning Europe, North America, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. COBOD works with construction companies, engineering firms, research institutions, and energy developers seeking to industrialize building processes and reduce labor intensity while maintaining structural performance.

COBOD International serves the construction, infrastructure, housing, and renewable energy sectors, with a focus on improving build speed, reducing costs, and supporting more sustainable construction practices. By combining robotic automation with digital construction workflows, the company contributes to the broader transition to more efficient, data-driven building methods.  For more information, please click here.
