BLOX is the prime manufacturer in the
Design Manufacture Construct (DMC) system. We manufacture huge building
chunks that can transported and assembled on site into complex buildings quickly. We have 400 employees, eleven production lines and significant growth through 2021.
DMC is a building delivery system that uses powerful design to leverage manufacturing productivity so that construction is simple. Our
vision is to make a better world by making better buildings. Our
mission is to make things that strengthen our clients, enhance our communities and advance our professions, and our
goal is to (build the machine to) make buildings twice as good, twice as fast, and with twice the value of those made by anyone anywhere – 2x2x2.
We are both service and product, and our staff includes cross-trained specialists in architecture, engineering, industrial design, programming, technology, digital fabrication, manufacturing, and construction. Rather than trying to keep up with the pack, we are making the one the pack will follow.
