Meet the innovative startups in construction that are revolutionizing the construction and architecture sector with their cutting-edge technology.

Top Startups construction sector

One of the most dynamic sectors today is the construction industry. This industry satisfies the basic needs of acquiring or renting real estate. As such, it is necessary and therefore quite lucrative.

The construction industry is facing what can probably be described as the biggest "tech boom" since the industrial revolution, and it is happening now.

The cutting-edge technology that the new construction startups they break the traditional schemes with fresh ideas that change the typical way of designing, projecting and building all kinds of architectural elements.

Today, it is time to see the most promising startups to become leaders in the construction sector revolution and that have been winners of the famous international competition CEMEX Ventures.

1.- Arqlite

Production of artificial gravel entirely from recycled plastics, three times lighter and ten times more insulating than conventional gravel. Company location in Argentina.

Taking advantage of the benefits of plastic polymers. The company produces a new type of artificial stone with the idea of ending the plastics problem, implying significant cost savings and less environmental impact.

A new artificial engraving that has palpable advantages:

  • The new material weighs 66% less than the typical engraving, generating lighter concretes with lower transport costs and, of course, a significant reduction in the weight of the structure.
  • Its greater thermal and acoustic insulation results in better construction quality and greater energy conversion. 10 times as the best insulator.
  • Controlling the size has benefits to improve the optimization of the concrete or drains.
  • Perfect for environmental certifications like LEED.
  • With a mineral aggregate the absorption capacity must be calculated. This material does not absorb water, which reduces environmental impact and simplifies processes.
  • The low thermal conductivity of plastic reduces its reaction to extreme temperature variations.
  • Its high molecular resistance synthesized material is highly resistant to wear to acids, alkalis and solvents.

Remember the article about the Startup that pays you to consume less electricity. A great idea!

2.- Rebartek

Automation in the prefabrication of reinforcement cages and mesh with industrial robots. Company location in Norway.

3.- PlanRadar

SaaS solution for documentation and communication in construction and real estate projects. Located company in Austria.

An application that is available on iOS and Android devices, as well as in the main browsers for optimizing workflow and reducing costs by up to 70%.

  • Simple issuance of Tickets. Tickets are created with mobile devices directly on site. Attaching photos, text and voice messages.
  • Direct communication. Assign a ticket directly to the responsible person, who will receive an automated message.
  • Flat digitization. It is possible to move around the map without delay. This way you always get the overview.

4.- 360 Smart Connect

Smart traceability to increase efficiency in construction processes. Located company in France. Now the concrete is connected!

With the company's patented technology, construction companies have a reliable traceability system to collect a wide range of information on demand; from quality control documents to operational information to correctly organize prefabricated parts on site at the factory, as well as administrative and billing data.

Our connected concrete guarantees the technical and commercial traceability of the material most used in construction

5.- BuildStream

Real-time management of heavy equipment and logistics in complex construction projects and their supply chains. Located in the USA.

Telematic data management system centered on a single platform designed for developers and contractors using a combination of their own and combined teams on projects.

6.- BldBox

Predictive analytics platform that leverages historical project data and produces accurate estimates for new construction and development projects. Located in the USA.

Every construction project begins with a planning phase. Developers need to determine the feasibility of a project and this requires the analysis of all possible options. The Bldbox tool helps the developer to estimate the cost of construction in each of the stages on site.

tool to compare and improve costs of architectural projects

The impact of construction cost is difficult to overestimate. Different designs can generate different revenues and have different construction costs. It is difficult to predict which design will perform the best for investors and project owners unless the construction cost can be estimated on an individual basis.

The company has developed an Artificial Intelligence algorithm that builds a predictive model capable of estimating the construction cost of any architecture project instantly.

7.- Matrak

Construction materials monitoring network that digitizes the supply chain on site. Located company in Australia.

The software allows each company, on a project, to track and share information in real time at each stage; manufacturing, shipping, installation and defects.

  • Improve visibility. It is a hub that enables teams and companies to easily work together and share key information.
  • Stay organized. Manage work effectively by keeping track of materials, equipment, and progress.
  • Increase efficiency. A connected work environment leads to greater efficiency, saving you time and ultimately money.

8.- Morta

Coding and automation through software for compliance with building regulations. Located company in the United Kingdom.

The only platform where BIM rules can be shared and agreed, linked to existing work processes, which are automatically reviewed, verified and ensured for compliance.

  • Save time and effort. You do not need to create your own information management rule sets or manually verify that they are followed.
  • Eliminate risk and ensure compliance. Get automatic reports on the activities of the BIM team you are carrying out, with the assurance that all parties are meeting your requirements.
  • Eliminate errors and incorrect data. Data will no longer be presented without parameters, with the wrong type, or with wrong values.
  • Collaboration and ease of use. Lets you define information management rules collaboratively in a web application and apply them in Autodesk Revit.

9.- Thunderbolt pipeline

End-to-end intelligent platform that uses Artificial Intelligence (See artificial intelligence applied to architecture) and Machine Learning to reduce risks and allow pre-construction teams to make more competitive offers in the modern architecture and construction sector. Located in the USA.

  • Workforce planning. Predict your workforce needs to retain and hire the right talent at the right time.
  • CRM construction. Share notes and files in real time. Set up automated tasks to keep your team in sync.
  • Tracking offers and prospects. Drive higher margins by bidding strategically to outperform the competition.

10.- Vero Solutions

Modular design builder that applies a disruptive and patentable technology for steel and cement. Located company in Canada.

The company takes advantage of the knowledge of the construction industry with new technologies and cutting-edge platforms, focusing on solving the main challenges of the construction ecosystem through sustainable solutions.

It has created an open and collaborative platform to lead the construction industry revolution, engaging startups, entrepreneurs, universities and other stakeholders to meet today's industry challenges and shape the value ecosystem of tomorrow.
