Executive Summary
Summary:
Additive manufacturing or three-dimensional (3D) printing refers to the process of creating a 3D, solid object from a digital model by accumulating successive layers of material in numerous shapes. In the 1980s, the first working 3D printer was built. High cost and limited range of end uses for these printers limits extensive applications. Since then, the launch of novel 3D printing technologies (3D inkjet printers) has played a key role in lowering cost. After a slow start, 3D printing is poised for rapid growth.
BCC Research estimates the total global market for Advanced Materials for 3D Printing at $REDACTED billion in 2021. This figure is expected to rise to $REDACTED billion in 2022 and to nearly $REDACTED billion in 2027, based on a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of REDACTED%, over the next five years.
REDACTED accounted for the largest share of the market in 2021, but comprise the slowest-growing segment, with a projected CAGR of REDACTED%. The segment's market share should decline to roughly REDACTED% by 2027. Meanwhile, REDACTED will remain the second-largest segment.
