BLOX is creating the tools to convert a resistant Architecture Engineering and Construction Industry into a smart and efficient machine. For those motivated to play a part in that change, this is an exciting time at BLOX.

BLOX is both service and product that includes architecture, engineering, manufacturing, logistics and construction.
