Imagine turning construction waste into functional products like stepping stones and garbage cans. What about printing a custom home retrofit piece in hours instead of weeks? Shockingly, according to the OECD, only 9% of plastic is actually recycled, with a staggering 49% ending up in landfills. That’s not right! 

The construction industry is full of challenges—high costs, supply chain delays, and excessive waste. Could 3D printing be the solution? How can 3D printing reduce construction waste? 

On this Holmes on Homes Podcast episode, Mike Holmes sits down with Randy Janes, Owner and Lead Operator at Wave of the Future 3D and Murray Pound, Owner and President of Generations Master Builder to explore how 3D printing is disrupting traditional construction, reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and making job sites more sustainable. They also talk about the benefits of using 3D printing in construction and how 3D printing is considered a green building technology.

3D printing offers a sustainable solution to not only recycle but also regenerate this plastic waste into durable, functional products for the construction industry and beyond. So could this be the future of building? Listen to find out.
