DUBLIN, October 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global 3D Printing Materials Market - Analysis and Forecast (2016-2022)" report to their offering.

The global 3D printing materials market is estimated to reach $1.52 billion by 2022 at a CAGR of 17.6% through the forecast period.

A rapid growth in 3D printing industry and growing demand of 3D printing technology from end-use industries such as automotive, aerospace & defense, healthcare and consumer sector are some of the reasons responsible for the growth of this market.However, the market consists of certain constraints such as lack of awareness, high cost and compatibility of 3D printing materials, and lack of channel partner assistance which are hampering its overall growth.

3D printing industry visualizes a world where 3D printer will be used in every home. 3D printing is rapidly evolving, and with increasing technological advancement and wide range of 3D printing materials, it is gradually becoming more pervasive, thus, changing the face of the manufacturing industries. The global 3D printing materials market is estimated to witness growth at a CAGR of 17.6% over the period of 2016 to 2022. This growth is expected due to increasing demand of 3D printing materials from the manufacturing industries, increasing consumer application and increasing opportunities for 3D printers in the clothing, electronics and food sector.

The 3D printing materials market comprises of the materials such as plastics, photopolymers, metals and metal alloys, ceramics among others and technologies such as Materials Extrusion (FDM/FFF), Light Polymerized (SLA, DLP, PJP) and Powder Bed Fusion (DMLS, SLS, SLM, EBM) among others.

The report answers the following questions about the Global 3D printing materials market:

  • What are the dominant materials and technologies used in 3D printing materials market?
  • What are the materials used for 3D printing?
