en.Wedoany.com Reported - Serendics (セレンディクス), a Japanese 3D printing construction company headquartered in Nishinomiya, Hyogo Prefecture, will exhibit blast shelters and drone bases built using 3D printers at the UK defense industry exhibition "Farnborough International Airshow 2026" (held from July 20 to 24 local time). The company believes that compared to traditional construction methods, it offers greater freedom in shape and construction location, and plans to display physical models at the booth of the Acquisition, Technology & Logistics Agency (ATLA).

The structures use concrete materials suitable for 3D printing. Through repeated experiments involving metal projectiles impacting 3D-printed structures, Serendics has verified the durability and impact resistance of different structures and material processing methods, applying the obtained data to the design of blast shelters and drone bases.

The characteristic of 3D printing technology lies in its ability to manufacture curved and complex-shaped walls, and construction can be carried out at any location as long as a 3D printing robotic arm, nozzle, and materials are available. The company states that by participating in the exhibition, it aims to "convey the potential of 3D concrete-printed blast shelters and drone bases." Additionally, insights on durability gained from the experiments will also be applied to its existing residential business sector.
