Digital Construction Manufacturing · India
MiCoB develops integrated 3D concrete printing technology — printable materials, automation, robotic manufacturing software and construction engineering, working as one system. More than 650 structures delivered across 13 states.
Delivered across defence, infrastructure, housing, hospitality and industrial projects — in conventional civil locations as well as difficult terrain and extreme climates.
Trusted delivery
MiCoB has delivered 3D printed construction for the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force, for leading academic institutions and for private industry.
What we do
3D concrete printing is not simply a robot extruding concrete. It is an integrated manufacturing process.
MiCoB brings together material science, automation, software, machinery and construction engineering into a single controlled workflow — from digital design through to a built structure.
The value is in the integration. Equipment can be purchased; the advantage comes from the years of work behind it — proprietary material formulations, process-control logic, purpose-built software and real-world execution knowledge.
Founded in 2018 at IIT Gandhinagar, MiCoB now operates as a construction technology and execution company rather than just a printer supplier, working across design, material engineering, manufacturing, quality control, logistics and project delivery.
From digital design to built reality
Every MiCoB build moves through the same engineered sequence. Each stage is designed around the requirements of the specific project.
Architectural geometry becomes manufacturing-ready digital information.
Structure, print strategy, reinforcement and construction methodology are engineered around project requirements.
Printable material is prepared and conditioned under controlled process parameters.
Automated systems deposit material layer by layer according to the manufacturing strategy.
Reinforcement, services and conventional construction elements are integrated as required.
Printed components and structures become finished, deployable construction.
One platform, multiple capabilities
Industrial-scale additive construction requires several technology layers to operate together. MiCoB focuses on integration across the complete production chain.
Explore the technologyPrintable construction materials formulated for controlled deposition, buildability and structural performance.
Robotic and automated systems that deposit material accurately and repeatably.
Design-to-production workflows that turn geometry into manufacturing instructions.
Mixing, pumping and extrusion systems that prepare and deliver material to the point of deposition.
Synchronisation and control that keep material, machine and motion in step during a print.
Structural and architectural engineering that carries a print through to a completed build.
Proven through real projects
Industrial & Energy Infrastructure · Lakadia, Bhuj
MiCoB delivered a 2,200 sq. ft. 3D-printed store warehouse at Lakadia, Bhuj, for WRSS XXI (A) Transco Limited, part of Adani Energy. With a clear internal height of 20 ft., the project demonstrates the application of 3D concrete printing to industrial utility buildings with larger spatial and operational requirements.

Hospitality · Nagoa Beach, Diu
MiCoB delivered a 12,000 sq. ft. 3D-printed resort at Nagoa Beach, Diu, demonstrating the commercial application of construction-scale 3D concrete printing in hospitality. The completed development brings together digitally manufactured building elements with the functional and architectural requirements of a resort environment.

Education & Campus Infrastructure · Sonipat, Haryana
MiCoB delivered 3D-printed canteen buildings at Ashoka University in Sonipat. The 600 sq. ft. project applies digital construction to a public-facing campus amenity and demonstrates how printed forms can be integrated into a distinctive architectural setting.
View case studyIn their words
Developers and project managers who have taken a 3D printed structure from decision to handover, on their own projects.
The idea to adopt 3D concrete printing technology for this coastal resort was initiated and developed by Kamnath Group as part of our vision for sustainable and future-ready hospitality infrastructure. As investor and developer, Kamnath advanced this initiative in trusted collaboration with MiCoB, integrating innovative construction technology into a resilient hospitality asset. After one year of successful operations, the decision has proven to be both strategic and forward-thinking. The measurable improvements in energy efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and structural durability validate our approach. Kamnath remains committed to building scalable, sustainable, and value-driven hospitality developments for the future.
Partnering with MiCoB for India's first 3D-printed resort project has been an exceptional experience. Their cutting-edge technology and expertise allowed us to construct a state-of-the-art, 40-room luxury resort with 5-star amenities, setting a benchmark in sustainable and innovative construction. The attention to detail in addressing the challenges posed by the nearby coastline, including the impact of salty weather, was remarkable. Their team designed and implemented solutions that ensured the resort's durability and structural integrity, maintaining its elegance and functionality over time. This collaboration has redefined possibilities in the construction industry, and we couldn't be more proud of the result. We highly recommend MiCoB to anyone seeking innovation, precision, and unmatched quality in their projects.
Why 3D concrete printing
Where MiCoB has validated data for a specific project, figures are published with context. The dimensions below describe the qualitative shift, not universal guarantees.
| Dimension | Conventional | With MiCoB 3DCP |
|---|---|---|
| Formwork | Extensive formwork fabricated and removed for each shape. | Complex geometry printed directly, reducing formwork dependency. |
| Design complexity | Curved and bespoke forms are costly and slow. | Geometric complexity carries little additional cost once designed. |
| Digital repeatability | Outcomes depend heavily on manual workmanship. | The same digital model reproduces components predictably. |
| Deployment | Difficult in remote or constrained locations. | Automated, near-site production suits demanding conditions. |
Why choose MiCoB
Most 3D concrete printing offers stop at a machine. MiCoB develops the material, the automation, the software and the construction methodology together — and has taken them through hundreds of delivered structures in real operating conditions.
In-house concrete formulations developed through research, production trials and field validation — tuned per project for geometry, climate, pumping distance and structural requirement.
Krypton, MiCoB's own slicing and simulation suite, handles print-path generation, sequencing, workspace validation and robot-ready output — without a chain of CAD plugins and manual handovers.
Sensors and controls synchronise material preparation with extrusion and robotic motion, so material and machine respond as one system instead of requiring constant manual correction.
Components are produced under controlled conditions, inspected, transported and assembled on site — reducing dependence on formwork and fragmented site labour while improving repeatability.
Delivered for the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force, IIT Jodhpur, Ashoka University and Adani Energy — across defence, housing, hospitality, education and industrial work.
650+ structures delivered
Deployed in high-altitude border regions, desert heat, seismic zones and remote sites where access, logistics and the construction window drive the entire method.
