3D Printing Material Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Material Type (Metals, Plastic, Ceramics, Others), By End-User Industry (Healthcare, Automotive, Aerospace and Defence, Construction, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Description

3D Printing Material Market Size:

The 3D printing material market is expected to surge from USD 2.038 billion in 2025 to USD 5.928 billion in 2030, with a 23.81% CAGR.

3D printing materials are those materials that can be easily used in 3D printers for the production of the desired object or component. 3D printing materials are an additive manufacturing process used for accomplishing three-dimensional solid objects by adding subsequent layers of materials to compose the object.

3D Printing Material Market Trends:

The rising adoption of 3D printed components in the healthcare sector, aerospace and defense, and the automotive sector is one of the major factors driving the market growth during the forecast period. The 3D printing materials have benefits such as low cost, less manufacturing time, reduced material wastage, etc. which are encouraging industries such as automotive and aerospace to actively use them in their processes. The increased public and private spending on these industries will fuel the market demand for 3D printing materials during the forecast period. In addition, the development of low-cost devices, and the decrease in the price of materials required for 3D printing are anticipated to proliferate the market growth.

Moreover, the driving factor for the 3D printing material market is the rise in the demand for desktop printing, nationwide. Also, the demand for metals is surging owing to the increasing penetration in high-end applications such as structural parts in the automotive and aerospace industry.

Furthermore, the rising adoption of prototyping for product designs, sampling, and conceptual modeling is further expected to positively impact the 3D printing material market growth during the coming years.

3D Printing Material Market Segment Analysis:

By end-user industries, the healthcare and automotive industry account for the dominant market share owing to the excessive use of 3D printing materials in the industries for multiple applications. The aerospace and defense industry is also projected to grow at a high CAGR due to increased spending in the sector.

Geographically, Asia Pacific will be the fastest-growing region owing to the flourishing industries such as automotive, and healthcare in the region, especially in countries such as India and China.  North America is also expected to hold a notable market share due to the early adoption of these materials across various industries. Also, the increased healthcare expenditure of the region will strengthen regional growth. 

3D Printing Material Market Growth Factors:

• Growing use in the automotive industry.

The major key driver of the 3D printing material market is the surging use in the automotive industry.

These materials are largely used in the automotive industry for components, like bellows, dashboard interface, front bumper, suspension wishbone, alternator mounting bracket, air conditioning ducting, battery cover, etc. Automotive OEM manufacturers use 3D printing materials for rapid prototyping. The extensive use of 3D printing material for multiple applications in the automotive industry will drive market growth during the forecast period. 

• Huge demand from the Chinese market.

The rising demand for 3D printing material from the Chinese market will drive market growth during the forecast period as China is one of the fastest-growing economies globally. The flourishing automotive, construction, aerospace, and healthcare market in China has been witnessing staggering growth for 3D printing material. China has been using 3D printing material in the construction industry since 2015, which has encouraged other countries to adopt this technology. China has been using these materials for the construction of buildings, offices, and bridges, which will contribute to the market growth during the forecast period.
