EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Consumer 3D printing is a niche sub-segment of the global 3D printing market. The term
additive manufacturing or 3D printing refers to process of getting printed an object of any shape
from a digital model. The process is performed through a digital technology i.e. CAD (Computer
aided design). Additive manufacturing is one of the most widely accepted emerging technology
and its services are being utilized by various industries like medical, automotive, consumer
products, military, aerospace, academics, construction and others.
The global Consumer 3D Printing market
reach $576m in revenues by 2018.
is expected to grow from around $85m in 2013 to

The inception of 3D printing happened in 90’s but was chained to industrial application. From
past 5 years the industry marked its entrance into consumer products. The Consumer 3D
printing market is growing at a very fast pace with 46.6% CAGR for next five years. The
pullulating market is supported by strong demand from the consumers. Many companies are
vying to bring newer designs to attract consumers. Startups based on 3D printers for consumer
products are also growing at a huge pace in North America and Europe.

3D printers are generally used in industries, but entry level printers which can produce products
of relatively smaller volumes are currently available for purchase by households, hobbyists,
educational institutions as these printers come at a very low cost. Makerbot is considered as the
pioneer of this market which was followed by other companies like Solidoodle, Ultimake etc.
These companies take up and improve on the specifications from the open source models in the
RepRap community.
This report focuses on the household or consumer 3D printers market opportunity and growth
prospects. The market has been segmented by geography as North America, Europe, Asia, and
Rest of the World (RoW). Market size and forecast is provided for each of these regions. A
detailed qualitative analysis of the factors responsible for driving and restraining growth of the
consumer 3D printing market and future opportunities are provided in the report.
This report on the Global Consumer 3D Printing Market identifies many such insights and
M&A opportunities, besides providing a detailed analysis of the Consumer 3D Printing services
and equipment market.

Key Market Insights
3D Printers and 3D printing market have become the buzz words in the additive manufacturing
industry currently.
The market is becoming highly consolidated with Stratasys and 3Dsystems being the
global behemoths in this industry. 3DSystems especially has been highly active with a
string of acquisitions of smaller companies (around 40) across the globe in the past 2
years.
Stratasys also has merged with Objet recently and has acquired the popular manufacturer
Makerbot in June 2013 for $403 million.
Highest growth in this market is being primarily seen in the US currently but both APAC
and the European markets will contribute significant revenues in two years time as
distribution channels and local manufacturing plants proliferate in these regions.
As the recent wave of 3D printing companies launches was based on expiration of key
patents in additive manufacturing, another wave of new companies are expected to arrive
in 2014 based on key patents expiration in the laser sintering technology.
