The ten market players in this report and a brief synopsis of their participation in the market are:
Stratasys is a global leader in polymer 3D printing known for Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and PolyJet systems and a broad portfolio of engineering-grade thermoplastics and photopolymers used across aerospace, automotive, healthcare and industrial applications. 3D Systems offers a wide range of SLA, SLS and material-jetting technologies with an extensive materials catalogue including resins and engineering plastics focused on prototyping, healthcare and production parts. EOS specializes in powder-bed fusion and polymer materials for industrial additive manufacturing, supplying high-performance thermoplastic powders and photopolymers for aerospace, medical and automotive sectors. HP develops Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) and related technologies and partners on material development for scalable production, offering polymers and functional powders aimed at high-throughput industrial use. Materialise provides software, services and material solutions for polymer and photopolymer workflows, notably enabling medical applications, surgical planning, and custom part production through its materials and process certification expertise. Formlabs is a leading supplier of professional resin (photopolymer) systems and consumables for desktop SLA/DLP users and small-to-medium enterprises, with a strong emphasis on biocompatible and engineering-grade resins for dental, medical and jewelry markets. BASF (through its Forward AM business) develops and supplies a wide range of polymer powders, filaments and photopolymer formulations for multiple additive technologies, leveraging large-scale chemical and materials R&D to produce engineering-grade and application-specific materials. Evonik produces specialty powders, filaments and photopolymers with a portfolio targeting medical, industrial and high-performance applications, and invests in partnerships and upstream material innovations to expand compatibility with industrial printers. Arkema supplies UV-curable resins, high-performance polymer powders and specialty filament materials for 3D printing processes, focusing on chemical resistance, mechanical performance and thermal stability for industrial use cases. Sabic (SABIC) and other major petrochemical firms are important suppliers of engineering thermoplastics and filaments for additive manufacturing; Sabic’s materials are used widely in FDM/FFF and other polymer-based production workflows where consistency and scale are required.
These ten companies collectively cover the major segments of the 3D printing plastics and photopolymers market—desktop and professional resin systems, filament/FDM thermoplastics, powder-bed fusion materials, and production-scale polymer technologies—combining printer hardware, certified materials and software/services to enable applications from rapid prototyping to qualified end-use part manufacturing. Market reports and industry analyses identify these firms among the leaders due to their integrated materials portfolios, partnerships with OEMs and end-users, and sustained R&D investments in high-performance and application-specific polymers and photopolymers.
