In Hong Kong, the adoption of automation and robotics are in great demand by the construction industry due to a certain number of issues such as labor shortage, demographic changes, and the urge of increasing construction efficiency. The technologies are made available with higher flexibility and capability yet lower cost, hence are being widely used in many areas. Procedures like concrete appliance, climbing formwork, interior wall treatments, and logistics supply can now be automated or handled by robots.

Such technologies have been implemented by Hanison as well for not only quality assurance and process standardization, but also enhanced occupational safety and health.
