Top 17 3D Printing Materials Companies, Worldwide 2023: MarketsandMarkets 360 Quadrant Revealed

CHICAGO, Sept. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- MarketsandMarkets has released 360 Quadrant for Top 17 3D Printing Materials Companies, Worldwide 2023 to help businesses make quicker and more informed decisions. Companies' market presence and product footprint are used to build quadrants, which will be revised annually.

The technology of printing a three-dimensional (3D) object from a digital file using materials such as plastic, metal, and ceramic is called 3D printing, and the materials used are called 3D printing materials. Plastics, metals (including powders), resins, and ceramics are among the materials used in 3D printing. 3D printing materials are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. Designers and engineers prefer to create functional prototypes using 3D printing materials that have the same or similar material properties as those of the final product. Plastics are the most commonly used 3D printed materials, and they are available in filament, resin, granule, and powder forms.

The global 3D printing materials market is projected to grow from USD 2.5 billion in 2022 to USD 7.9 billion by 2027 at a CAGR of 25.6% during the forecasted period. The market growth can be attributed to factors such as ease in the development of customized products and reduction in manufacturing costs and process downtime. However, the high cost of materials and lack of standard process control are some of the challenges that restrict the market's growth.
