Laycon
Automated Concrete Printing for Next-Gen Construction Empowering Sustainable and Affordable Construction in Israel
The Change We Bring
From Traditional Construction to Industrial Execution
Kap-Group has been building homes for years, so we know the bottlenecks from the ground: Labor shortages. Rising costs. Unpredictable timelines.
Laycon by Kap-Group introduces globally proven 3D concrete printing into real construction projects in Israel, with faster structural build times, lower workforce dependency, and reduced costs.
Product Focus
Laycon – Proven Technology. Structured Local Implementation
Laycon was developed by Kap-Group, a construction and development firm led by Yohanan Kapelnikov, a civil engineering technologist and contractor.
Laycon combines globally proven 3D concrete printing with local construction expertise.
• Layer-by-layer structural printing
• Adapted concrete mix using local aggregates for Israeli standards and climate
• Engineered structural planning
• Integrated into standard workflows
What They Gain
Private Home Owners – Build Your Home Affordable and Sustainable
Laycon enables homeowners to complete the structural phase of their home significantly faster, with fewer delays and less dependency on workforce availability.
Enjoy preferred pricing and project priority.
Developers & Contractors – Improve Timelines and Reduce Cost and Risk
Laycon integrates into your project as a structural execution layer, allowing you to accelerate the concrete phase while maintaining full planning alignment.
Public & Utility Structures – Build Faster with Predictable Costs
Laycon enables rapid construction of schools, community buildings, service structures, storage facilities, and other public-use buildings.
Automated structural execution reduces workforce dependency and accelerates project timelines while maintaining engineering control.

Benefits
From Digital Model to Completed Structure in as Little as 8 Weeks
Faster Structural Completion
Laycon reduces the concrete structural shell phase by up to 80%.
Earlier structural completion allows faster continuation of trades and earlier delivery.
Reduced Labor Dependency
Automated concrete printing minimizes on-site crews by 75%.
This reduces exposure to workforce shortages and scheduling delays.
Cost Control
3D-printed homes are up to 38% lower in structural construction costs than traditional site-built homes. 3D printing resembles factory production and increases efficiency in the building process.
Cost Predictability
Industrial execution creates measurable output and clearer cost forecasting.
Less variability. Fewer surprises during the structural phase.
Consistent Structural Quality
Layer-by-layer automated placement improves dimensional accuracy and repeatability.
Reduced human error leads to more controlled structural execution.
Lower Environmental Impact
3D printing produces less waste compared to traditional construction methods. Using lean manufacturing, pre-cut materials, and smoother material flow all help reduce waste during building.
Architectural Innovation
3D concrete buildings provide significant design flexibility and a wide range of layout options. Homeowners can create bespoke homes tailored to their specific needs.
Proven Around the World
Proven Around the World. Now Adapted for Israel.
3D concrete printing has been successfully implemented in residential, public, and commercial construction projects around the world for nearly a decade.
Laycon adapts this proven technology to Israeli construction standards, materials, and climate conditions.
Projects built globally include:
• Residential homes
• Schools and public buildings
• Utility structures and warehouses
• Community facilities
By combining global technology with local construction expertise, Laycon enables a structured transition to industrialized construction in Israel.
About Us
Kap-Group is a construction and development firm led by Yohanan Kapelnikov, a civil engineering technologist and contractor.
Laycon was developed from real construction experience in the field, not from a research lab.
