The NSW Premier, "completely blown away."

Premier Chris Minns and Minister Rose Jackson toured the Contour3D factory and the Genesis housing site on Kingsway, Woolooware, seeing 3D concrete printing for housing first-hand before a business luncheon in the Shire.

The Premier said he was “completely blown away” by the technology, which is engineered and built in Sutherland Shire.
