<strong>3D</strong> <strong>Printing</strong> <strong>Plastics</strong> <strong>Market</strong> <strong>Analysis</strong>, <strong>Share</strong>, <strong>Growth</strong> & <strong>Forecast</strong><br />

“Global <strong>3D</strong> <strong>Printing</strong> <strong>Plastics</strong> <strong>Market</strong> report includes in-depth analysis of<br />

industry by recent technologies, trends, opportunities, challenges, key players<br />

and business strategies considering types, segment and future outlook.”<br />

<strong>3D</strong> printing is commonly known as additive manufacturing and infers a process that creates a three-dimensional<br />

object in which layers of material are formed by computers to generate an object. Objects can be of any shape<br />

and can be created using digital model data from a <strong>3D</strong> model or any other electronic data source such as additive<br />

manufacturing file. Technically, <strong>3D</strong> printing refers a process that deposits a binder material onto a powder bed<br />

with inkjet printer heads sheet by sheet. On the basis of application, the global <strong>3D</strong> <strong>Printing</strong> <strong>Plastics</strong> <strong>Market</strong> is<br />

segmented into commercial, industrial and amateur. Commercially, <strong>3D</strong> printing uses a mixture of several types<br />

of filaments, from chocolate and cement to regenerating a tissue.<br />

<strong>3D</strong> printing is a much new concept than additive manufacturing, which serves as a much quick alternative to<br />

older engineering methods such as sculpting and forging and is also a cost-effective process. In fact, the<strong>3D</strong><br />

printing field is much diverse and a rapidly expanding one. Nylon or polyamide is basically used in powder from<br />

for plastics printing. The process mainly follows sintering or also called as FDM process. The process ensures<br />

flexibility, durability and reliability for <strong>3D</strong> printing.<br />

The material can also be used with aluminum powder to produce another <strong>3D</strong> printing material for sintering. ABS<br />

is another method which is a common and widely used method. Overall, the commercial techniques used in <strong>3D</strong><br />

plastics printing are deployed on a large scale worldwide, thus it can be anticipated that the global market is set<br />

to grow at a healthy CAGR during forecast period. The key driving factors responsible for the growth of <strong>3D</strong><br />

printing plastics market include adoption of <strong>3D</strong> printing technology by end-use industries.<br />

However, lack of adoption of new and emerging technologies in developing regions is likely to impede the<br />

market growth. Other factors such as need for certification of grades and higher costs involved with<br />

production of commercial grades inhibit the market growth during the forecast period. On the basis of type,<br />

the global <strong>3D</strong> printing plastics market is segmented into photopolymers, PLA, ABS and polyamide/nylon.<br />

Photopolymers type contributed to the growth of <strong>3D</strong> printing plastics market during the forecast period and is<br />

expected to continue the dominance. The growth is mainly due to rise in demand for healthcare and medical<br />

equipment and also photopolymers are extensively used in SLA technology and for prototyping of static<br />

models in several end-use industries.<br />

On the basis of end-use industry, the global <strong>3D</strong> printing plastics market is segmented into healthcare &<br />

medical, aerospace & defense, commercial goods and automotive. Healthcare & medical end-use segment is<br />

anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period owing to enhanced technology, financial<br />

support by government and promptness in product development.<br />

On the basis of geographic segmentation, the global <strong>3D</strong> printing plastics market is segmented into North<br />

America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle-East and Africa. North America dominates the global<br />

market owing to presence of <strong>3D</strong> printing plastics manufacturers. APAC regions are likely to dominate the<br />

global market owing to rapid developments in printing technology.<br />

The growth is mainly witnessed in the regions of India, China, Malaysia, Singapore and Japan. Middle-East and<br />

African regions are anticipated to grow at a lower CAGR during the forecast period owing to less presence of<br />

printing industries and lack of support by the government. The key players in the global <strong>3D</strong> printing plastics<br />

market include <strong>3D</strong> Systems Corporation, EOS GmbH, Arkema SA, Stratasys and Evonik Inc.<br />
