Additive Manufacturing Market Sees 9.1% Growth, Wohlers Report 2025 States
The global additive manufacturing market is projected to experience a 9.1% growth rate, according to the latest Wohlers Report 2025.
The Wohlers Report 2025 has released its projections for the global additive manufacturing (AM) market, indicating a significant growth trajectory. The report forecasts a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1% for the industry.
This expansion is expected to be driven by various factors, including advancements in 3D printing technologies, the development of new materials, and increasing adoption across diverse industrial sectors. The report highlights the continued innovation in both hardware and software, enabling more complex designs and efficient production processes.
As additive manufacturing matures, its integration into mainstream production is becoming more pronounced. This growth suggests a sustained trend of companies leveraging AM for prototyping, tooling, and end-use part production, potentially leading to more resilient and localized supply chains.
The 9.1% growth forecast underscores the steady maturation of the additive manufacturing sector. This sustained expansion is critical as industries, including aerospace, seek to leverage AM for lighter, more complex components, reduced lead times, and decentralized production capabilities, potentially even for in-situ manufacturing on other celestial bodies.
