3D Printing Plastic Market Segment Analysis - By Type

Polyamide/Nylon segment held the largest share in the 3D Printing Plastic Market in 2023. Nylon (known as polyamide) is a synthetic linear polyamide thermoplastic and is a well-known 3D printing filament owing to its stability, toughness, low friction and corrosion resistance. Nylon is also a common substance used in the manufacture of clothing and accessories. Due to its improved strength and elasticity over PLA and ABS, Nylon is ideal for manufacturing uses, such as machine parts or equipment, or the replacement of automotive parts. As compared to ABS and PLA Nylon is tougher and more resistant to chemicals, but its poor strength and hardness prohibits it from being commonly used in the manufacturing industry. With the increasing demand for nylon the market for 3D printing plastic is also estimated to rise in the forecast period.

3D Printing Plastic Market Segment Analysis - By Application

Prototyping segment held the largest share in the 3D Printing Plastic Market in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.1% during the forecast period 2024-2030. Creating a concept can be a costly and slow process. Fortunately, certain methods are available to help you enhance the product creation process, helping to make high-quality prototypes at a cheaper cost. From office to the factory floor, 3D printers produce plastic concept models, precision and practical prototypes, master patterns and actual end-use components for refining every project, streamlining the workflows and getting creative products to the market quicker. Besides, 3D printing plastic is the best solution for designing the prototypes. By beginning to create the 3D printing project, one will have access to a wide variety of efficient 3D printing supplies, saving time and resources.

3D Printing Plastic Market Drivers

Rising Demand for 3D Printing Plastic from the Healthcare Industry

Rising usage of 3D printing plastic in the healthcare sector is driving the market growth. Key factors driving demand in the medical industry for 3D printing plastics include cost-effectiveness, ease of customization, as well as the rising occurrence of vascular and osteoarthritis diseases. Polyamide or nylon is often used for injection molding in medical device owing to its inflexible nature, strength, chemical compatibility, and temperature resilience. Increasing use of photopolymers for high-resolution, ultra-fine parts in medical devices will also drive the market growth. Moreover, the market demand in medical applications is expected to be fueled by advanced 3D technology, favorable government funding, and rapid product growth. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, the government of India aims to increase the healthcare spending to 3% of the GDP by 2022, which means the healthcare sector will rise three-fold to Rs. 8.6 trillion (US$ 133.44 billion). Hence, the growing demand for 3D printing plastic from the healthcare sector will raise the growth for 3D Printing Plastic Market in the forecast period.

Increasing Demand for Biodegradable Materials for 3D printing

The growing need for the "green" alternative to traditional polymers has propelled the demand for polylactic acid in the 3D printing plastic industry. Since, polylactic acid is very inexpensive, easy to print, and produces components that can be used for a wide variety of applications, it is the ideal first material to be used in 3D printing. It is also one of the most environmental friendly products made from crops such as corn and cane that are used today. This material is thermoplastic aliphatic polyester and is the predominant natural raw material that consists of recycled raw materials used in 3D printing plastics. For most extrusion-based 3D printing, polylactic acid is also the default filament of choice, since it can be printed at low temperatures and does not require a heated bed. Thus, with the rising demand for biodegradable materials the growth for 3D printing plastics market is estimated to rise in the forecast period.

3D Printing Plastic Market Challenges

Environmental Issues Regarding 3D Printing Plastic Materials will Hamper the Market Growth

Over the last few years, one environmental issue has gradually stolen the spotlight that is plastic pollution. The reliance on plastics-especially single-use plastics-is now one of the world's leading environmental concerns. 3D printing uses the flexible, durable design of plastics in a wide variety of applications, from aerospace to healthcare. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is one of the most common filaments used in plastics such as bottles of disposable beverages and food packaging. Other filaments include polycarbonate and ABS: both are relatively inexpensive, flexible and easy to manufacture. Unfortunately, these materials are not commonly recyclable and so any waste generated in the printing process would find its way to the landfill or to the natural environment. Thus, rising environmental concerns due to the use of various 3D printing plastics is estimated to hinder the 3D printing plastics market growth.
