At Norseman Construction, innovation isn’t just a buzzword — it’s our blueprint. Today, we’re proud to announce a milestone not only for our company, but for Canada: we are the first and only construction company in the country to own and operate the MaxiPrinter 3D concrete printer.
This extraordinary piece of technology places Norseman in a class of its own. Around the world, very few builders are working with mobile, “crawling” 3D concrete printers of this scale — and none are combining it with a comprehensive workforce training program the way we are.
What the MaxiPrinter Can Do
The MaxiPrinter is one of the world’s most advanced 3D concrete printers. Unlike smaller, fixed systems, the MaxiPrinter is mobile, able to move along the site as it prints. This allows us to:
- Build faster – completing housing shells in days, not weeks.
- Build smarter – reducing material waste and improving precision.
- Build sustainably – lowering environmental impact compared to conventional methods.
- Build anywhere – its mobile design makes it suitable for both urban sites and rural communities.
With this technology, the possibilities are endless — from addressing Canada’s housing shortages to creating new standards for efficiency and sustainability.
Training the Next Generation – With the Best Tools in the World
As exciting as the MaxiPrinter is, technology means little without skilled people ready to use it. That’s where our LiveWell Training Program, funded through the Skills Development Fund (SDF), comes in.
Students enrolled in this program will have access to the MaxiPrinter — learning firsthand how 3D construction printing works, and gaining the skills to operate the very technology that will shape the future of our industry.
This is where Norseman is truly unique: no other company in the world is combining next-generation construction technology with a workforce development program of this kind.
Powered by Partnership
Bringing the MaxiPrinter to Canada was no small task. It was made possible through vision and collaboration. We want to give special credit to Leigh Newman and Printera, our incredible partners, whose leadership in additive construction technology made this achievement possible.
Together, Norseman and Printera are building more than projects — we’re building the foundation of a new construction era in Canada.
Looking Ahead
With the MaxiPrinter on site and the LiveWell Training Program underway, we are proud to lead Canada into the future of construction.
This is innovation in action:
- Technology that transforms how we build.
- Training that empowers the next generation of builders.
- Partnerships that make the impossible possible.
Stay tuned — because this is only the beginning.
