Deep Analysis of Impact of COVID-19 on “3D Printing Plastics Market 2019-2025” Growth Worldwide….
The global 3D printing
plastics market size is likely
to reach USD 1.98 billion by 2025,
according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc., rising at a CAGR of 24.9% during the forecast
period. Spiraling demand for 3D printing plastics, particularly from the
medical and aerospace & defense industries, is anticipated to contribute to
the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Key manufacturers engaged in manufacturing 3D
printing plastic filaments include 3D Systems Corporation; Arkema Inc.;
Envisiontec Inc.; Stratasys Ltd.; and Materialse NV. Market participants are
engaged in expanding the range of 3D printing plastics as well as their
applications. As technologies are rapidly advancing, manufacturers of 3D
printed plastics are focusing on streamlining pre and post production
processes.
The 3D printing plastics market is
benefitting from favorable government support in key economies such as the U.S.
and China. 3D printed products assist significantly in attaining economies of
scale through consumption of lesser lead time, reduced costs, and mitigated
risks. 3D plastics also allows easier customization as per consumer needs.
Thus, there is an upsurge in the demand for 3D printing plastics from various
end use industries such as automotive, medical, and electrical &
electronics.
Adoption rate of 3D printing is poised
to witness sharp rise across several new end user industries, which in turn is
expected to lead to higher demand for printing materials such as plastics.
Functional prototyping, tooling, and designing have enabled extensive
applications of 3D printing across newer application areas.
Consumer goods is emerging as a
significant application of 3D plastic products on account of reduced lead time
offered by additive manufacturing techniques. Innovative additive manufacturing
solutions enable production of designer parts with complex geometries, thus,
facilitating manufacturers to cater to rising consumer needs for personalized
parts.Photopolymers was the dominant plastic segment in terms of both revenue
and volume in 2017.

Heightened demand for photopolymers
can be attributed to high consumption in production of industrial prototypes
through the utilization of SLA technology. Polyamide/Nylon is estimated to
experience the fastest growth rate during the forecast period on account of
rising demand from both domestic as well as commercial applications. Use of
polyamide/nylon is accompanied by laser sintering technology.
Further key findings from the repot suggest:
·
North America will be the
dominant regional market in the global arena in terms of revenue throughout the
forecast period, while Asia Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR
of 26.7% during the same period. Favorable government policies in Asia Pacific
region particularly in China and India are likely to drive market growth
·
Photopolymers was the largest
type segment in the global 3D printing plastics market in 2017. Photopolymers
are used extensively across several end-user industries as it acts as a binder,
additive, colorant, plasticizer, and chemical agent in the 3D printed product

In April 2018, 3D Systems
Corporation participated in RAPID+TCT 2018 held in the U.S. Product portfolio
of the company consisted of several solutions, which would aid manufacturers in
switching from prototyping to production and to recognize their competitive
advantages. Figure 4™ platform demonstrates optimum throughput and accuracy
necessary for production of plastic part.
Applications of 3D printing are
widening across different Application industries. Nowadays, 3D printing is
extensively used to manufacture shoes, musical instruments, building parts, car
components, dental, jewellery, functional ceramics, robots, prosthetics, and
casts. Growing investments in these business sectors coupled with favourable
government support are expected to trigger the demand for 3D printing plastics.
Rapid advancements in various
materials and technologies are helping the market gain traction. In addition,
ability to produce tools, prototypes, fixtures, and other finished products
through utilization of additive manufacturing will further stimulate the demand
for 3D printing plastics.
3D printing or additive manufacturing
is considered highly efficient as compared to various other traditional
manufacturing methods. It enables production by reducing time, efforts, and
costs incurred in a project. Moreover, it does not even require specialized
tooling to create a prototype. Additive manufacturing also avoids several
tooling related constraints for geometries.
3D
printing plastic filaments dominated the market in terms of revenue in 2017.
They are manufactured and marketed in two diameters only, which includes 1.75mm
and 3mm. Their versatile properties coupled with surge in demand from several
application industries such as food packaging, tableware, upholstery, and
disposable garments are estimated to drive the demand during the forecast
period.
3D
printing inks are projected to witness promising growth during the same period
on account of ongoing research & development activities as well as
investments to develop smart inks. These inks enable 3D printed structures to
change their shape as well as colour, thereby enhancing their functionality.
Moreover, researchers are focusing on developing low cost options to
manufacture critical parts in application areas such as biomechanics and
energy.
