France Additive Manufacturing (AM) Market by Technology (Stereolithography, Fused Deposition Modeling, Selective Laser Sintering, Direct Metal Laser Sintering, Polyjet Printing, Inkjet Printing, Electron Beam Melting, Laser Metal Deposition, Digital Light Processing, Laminated Object Manufacturing, and Others) by Printer Type (Desktop 3D Printer and Industrial 3D Printer) by Material (Polymer, Metal, and Ceramic) by Application (Prototyping, Tooling, and Functional Parts) by Component (Hardware, Software, and Services) and by End-User (Industrial Additive Manufacturing and Desktop Additive Manufacturing) – Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast 2023–2030
France Additive Manufacturing (AM) Market was valued at USD 0.58 billion in 2022, and is predicted to reach USD 2.32 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 18.1% from 2023 to 2030.
The increasing usage of 3D printing in the aerospace and military industries as a result of regional company development boosts the need for additive manufacturing. For instance, in March 2022, Handddle, a France-based start-up specializing in 3D printing production lines, launched a new 3D printing microfactory, for the French Air and Space Force. The French Air and Space industry possesses FFF 3D printers from OEMs such as Markforged and Ultimaker.
Also, the demand for additive manufacturing technologies in the region can be attributed to the growing use of 3D printing in the healthcare industry. For instance, in April 2022, Eplus3D, the world's leading provider of metal 3D printer solutions, joined hands with BioSummer 3D, a leading provider of dental products and service solutions in France, and announced a distribution agreement to help dental laboratories and labs in 3D digital transformation.
However, the significant initial investment required to set up additive manufacturing infrastructure, which includes acquiring 3D printers, materials, and software, presents a substantial cost barrier. This obstacle is particularly challenging for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with limited financial resources, hindering their ability to fully adopt additive manufacturing technologies. As a result, these cost constraints are anticipated to limit the growth of the additive manufacturing market
Additive manufacturing market growth has been propelled by persistent technological advancements. These advancements have spanned multiple areas, including enhanced printer capabilities, improved materials, and more effective post-processing techniques. Consequently, the market has experienced noteworthy enhancements in output quality, shortened production cycles, and broader applications across a wide range of industries. The continuous evolution of additive manufacturing technology has generated ample opportunities for market expansion, leading to greater adoption and utilization.
