A Public Installation That Symbolizes Sustainability in Amersfoort

At the heart of Amersfoort’s Town Hall stands a concrete bench—but not just any bench. Designed and printed with a 3D concrete printer, this installation demonstrates the power of sustainable, digital construction in public urban spaces.

Made in Amersfoort: Local Collaboration, Real Impact

The project was developed by the local consortium ‘Made in Amersfoort’ and initiated at De War, with contributions from key local companies including:

Heilijgers Construction
Concrete Plant Van der Kamp
MBO-Bouwmensen
Polynorm
Stadslab033

Alderman Willem-Jan Stegeman, responsible for sustainability, accepted the bench as a proof of the city’s commitment to eco-conscious innovation.

Why This Matters for Urban Sustainability

✅ 50% less material
✅ 50% CO₂ reduction
✅ No formwork required

This 3D printed urban furniture is more than a bench—it’s a step forward in localized digital fabrication and circular design. The system used by Vertico allows the creation of complex forms with minimal waste, making it ideal for custom elements like benches, planters, and public sculptures.

From Prototype to Perfection: A 7-Year Evolution in Concrete Printing

This Amersfoort Town Hall bench marks an early milestone in Vertico’s mission to innovate urban spaces through 3D concrete printing. Built in collaboration with local partners and without the need for formwork, it set the foundation for what came next.

Fast forward seven years, and Vertico's capacity for design, detail, and digital fabrication has evolved dramatically.

This new project reflects not just technological growth, but also the design maturity, material precision, and urban aesthetic that has become Vertico’s signature in public space installations.
