India's first 3D-printed post office is coming up in Bengaluru.
Name of this post office is ‘Halasuru Post Office’.
The construction cost of this post office is about 30 to 40 per cent lower than constructing a conventional building and is expected to be completed in 30 days.
The 3D-printed post office will be about 1100 sq ft and the cost of construction is Rs 23 lakh.
The use of 3D printing technology can significantly reduce construction costs and expedite the building process, which would otherwise take several months.
The proposed three-storied post office in Bengaluru has received clearance from the Building Materials and Technology Promotion Council of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and IIT-Madras for its 3D printing.
This will be India’s first 3D-printed post office building.
