Advanced Materials for 3D Printing Technologies and Global Market Report 2024, with Company Profiles of Major Players within the Industry, including Stratasys, Proto Labs and Desktop Metal - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Advanced Materials for 3D Printing: Technologies and Global Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report provides a thorough qualitative as well as quantitative assessment of the global market for advanced materials for 3D printing.

The demand for advanced materials for 3D printing is increasing worldwide. The market's growth is supplemented by increasing applications of 3D printing (3DP) in prototyping, which has increased the use of 3DP in many industries, led by innovations in materials science. Large-scale manufacturing and end-use part production are two potential prospects for companies in the forecast period.

R&D and advances in 3D printing materials and technologies have transformed the ways in which products are developed. 3D printing technology has found applications in the aerospace and defense, automotive and medical and industries. In these industries, the latest advances have opened avenues for improved designs, lower costs, shorter lead times and lighter, cleaner and safer products.

Amid the growing emphasis on sustainable business practices, the 3D printing industry has emerged as a viable solution for attaining environmental goals. The market for advanced materials is also characterized by sustainable and recyclable materials that are environmentally friendly in nature. These include polylactic acid (PLA), recycled PLA, recycled PET, recycled acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs).

The transportation industry has the largest share of the global market, followed by medical and dental. Applications of 3D printing are also expanding into the consumer products, electronics, construction and industrial machinery sectors. Initially, the applications of 3D printing technology were limited to prototypes; however, they are now expanding with the development of end-use parts. This, in turn, is driving demand for metal 3D printing materials.
