Hyperion Robotics revolutionises UK infrastructure with game-changing 3D printing technology

Hyperion Robotics is reshaping the way the UK approaches infrastructure projects. By integrating cutting-edge 3D printing technology and proprietary low-carbon concrete materials, the company addresses some of the construction industry’s most pressing challenges, including project timelines, costs, and sustainability.

With £700 billion worth of infrastructure planned to be built in the UK over the next decade, the industry is under immense pressure to deliver projects that are not only on time and within budget but also align with strict sustainability goals. Hyperion Robotics has stepped up to the challenge by offering solutions that are not only Eurocodes compliant, but also significantly reduce costs, shorten programme durations, and cut CO2 emissions, helping contractors and asset owners tackle these obstacles head-on.

Key reductions realised in first projects:

  • 75% reduction in material use
    By leveraging robotic automation, Hyperion designs and produces advanced concrete structures using only a fraction of the materials required by traditional methods.
  • 70% decrease in CO2 emissions
    The company’s low-carbon concrete solutions dramatically reduce the carbon footprint of construction projects, supporting the UK’s push toward net-zero goals.
  • 70% programme savings
    By employing highly efficient localised microfactories, Hyperion accelerates project timelines while maintaining precision and reducing logistical challenges.
  • 20-30% cost savings for stakeholders
    Automation and efficiency translate directly into financial benefits, with Hyperion helping clients cut costs without compromising on quality.

Hyperion’s integration of parametric design, robotics, and circular materials not only enhances design flexibility but also significantly improves worker safety and reduces on-site risks by up to 21%. This approach has already been implemented in various sectors, with projects ranging from low-carbon foundations for energy plants for Iberdrola to bespoke drawpits for critical water infrastructure for Yorkshire Water and Mott MacDonald Bentley.

A key strength of Hyperion lies in its user-friendly business model, which ensures a seamless and efficient transition to 3D printing technology for projects of any scale. By prioritising streamlined integration processes and offering comprehensive support, Hyperion enables contractors and asset owners to quickly adopt their solutions and fully realise the tangible benefits of advanced automation and robotics.

“The £700 billion infrastructure investment presents a monumental opportunity for innovation and Hyperion Robotics is uniquely positioned to deliver the smarter, greener, and more cost-effective solutions the industry demands,” said Fernando De los Rios, CEO of Hyperion Robotics. “With our advanced technology, we’re proving that sustainability and efficiency can coexist without compromise. This transformation is not a future concept; it’s happening now, and we’re proud to lead the charge.”

Hyperion Robotics named best pitch at EIC Investor Day on Climate Tech

On April 2nd, at the European Innovation Council (EIC) Summit 2025, Hyperion Robotics was selected as the best pitch in the Industrial Biotech and New Materials category at the Investor Day on Climate Tech. The company joined an innovative cohort alongside D-CRBN, Solmeyea, and Nevomo in their respective categories: Energy, Agritech and Food, and Green Mobility and Transportation. The recognition came as part of a vibrant showcase of 24 pioneering climate tech companies pitching their breakthrough solutions to a room of over 70 top-tier investors and venture capitalists.

Held in Brussels, the EIC Summit has cemented itself as Europe’s leading event where deep tech meets policy, bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, and decision-makers to explore the future of innovation. This year’s Investor Day put a spotlight on powering green transition with climate tech solutions.

“When it comes to deep tech, and particularly those with manufacturing or high CapEx (capital expenditure), a lot of investors are put off by the levels of risk that need to be taken. What you’re doing here is kind of unveiling and demonstrating how far [these companies] have been able to get with support from the EU, from the EIC and from other investors,” highlighted Zoe Peden, Partner at Ananda Impact Ventures in EIC Stories (EIC Investor Day on Climate Tech: Powering the Green Transition at the EIC Summit 2025).

This stage was more than just a pitch opportunity—it was a strategic moment to showcase how deep tech can drive tangible, scalable solutions that address industry challenges and accelerate the green transition.

The construction sector is at a historic crossroads, responsible for nearly 40% of global carbon emissions yet crucial to delivering the estimated $7 trillion in sustainable infrastructure needed annually until 2030. Hyperion’s mission is to redefine the future of construction through low-carbon, intelligent solutions that reduce environmental impact, save costs, and build smarter.

“Being at the EIC Summit isn’t just about visibility—it’s about impact. To make real change, we need more than funding,” shared Fernando De los Rios , CEO of Hyperion Robotics.

We need a collaborative ecosystem where innovators, investors, policymakers and end-users align to accelerate meaningful progress.

By winning in their category, Hyperion not only validated their technology‘s potential but also reinforced their leadership in the climate tech space. The recognition signals a growing confidence in startups that are making deep tech not only innovative but also capital-efficient and policy-aligned.

Recently, Hyperion has been awarded by the European Innovation Council a €2.37 million grant, along with equity investment from the European Union, to support the development of carbon-negative materials for the construction industry. Additionally, Hyperion has joined the SCENE-B project, coordinated by Norwegian SINTEF Manufacturing, to develop a novel 3D-printed concrete material reinforced with aluminum fibers.
