K-nest Construction Tech enters the DeepTech space with indigenous automation solutions

K-nest Construction Tech has expanded into DeepTech construction technology, strengthening its portfolio with indigenous solutions across construction robotics, 3D printing, human augmentation, precision sensing and automated high-rise construction systems.

The expansion marks K-nest’s evolution from a construction systems manufacturer into a construction technology company focused on automation, mechanisation and human-machine collaboration on the physical job site.

A DeepTech portfolio for the construction site

3D concrete and construction printing systemsSite-scale, digitally controlled additive manufacturing systems that bring automated construction directly into the building process.

Autonomous quality and inspection roboticsAutonomous mobile robots that scan built environments and compare real-time site installations against Building Information Modeling (BIM) design models, automatically identifying execution discrepancies.

Industrial and construction exoskeletonsHuman-augmentation wearables designed to improve worker safety, reduce fatigue and enhance physical capability during construction activities.

Precision digital sensorsSpecialised digital alignment sensors that monitor formwork plumb and alignment in real time, alongside integrated anemometers that monitor wind speeds and support safe operating limits for high-rise screens.

Self-climbing safety screens and jump form systemsMechanised construction platforms that bring greater automation, intelligence and safety to conventional formwork and high-rise construction operations.

The move comes as India enters a major infrastructure and construction cycle. India’s real GDP grew 7.7% in FY2025-26, while construction accounted for approximately 8% of nominal GVA. The Union Government has budgeted ₹12.22 lakh crore in capital expenditure for FY2026-27 1 .
