About The Company

GROPYUS is a technology-based construction company focused on building multi-story residential buildings.

Thanks to its prefabricated building system with a wide range of design options, automated offsite construction, and fully digitalized processes, the company is able to create resilient timber housing quickly and cost-effectively.

GROPYUS is using scalable construction and manufacturing solutions to tap into a future market, strengthen Europe’s innovation capacity, and play a substantial role in improving sustainability.

The company delivers its multi-family houses as a complete and turnkey solution.

The combination of technology, construction, robotics, and manufacturing expertise means buildings can be created in a fully digitalized end-to-end process.

The building system is based on versatile wall and slab elements, making it easier to optimize land use, customize plans, and build fast with both off-site construction and on-site assembly.

This system is complemented by the Building Operating System–developed in-house.
