Dublin, Dec. 18, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets ( http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/nz...healthcare ) has announced the addition of the "Global Healthcare 3D Printers, Applications, Products, Services & Ancillary Market Assessment & Forecast: 2015-2019" report to their offering. The analysis in this report covers the 3D printers, 3D printed medical devices and 3D printing services market in regions such as Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Middle-East and Africa along with North America.
North America remains the undisputed leader in the global market attributed by the explosion of 3D printer manufacturers in recent years. While the 3D printing hardware accounts for approximately 16% of North America market, the healthcare 3D printing hardware is expected to be much higher at 24.2%.
A large demand for 3D printed surgical guides in the region which is a key factor to the growth of the market. Although, large companies such as Stratasys Inc, EnvisionTEC, 3D Systems are leading the North American 3D printing market, the region is increasingly becoming fragmented as a plethora of other 3D printer and service providers enter the market. 3D printer manufacturers are in-fact using crowdfunding platforms such as kickstarter and indiegogo to promote their products effectively and some have even over achieved their funding targets within a year. United Kingdom, Sweden, Poland, Germany, Belgium and Italy are at the forefront of the European 3D printing market. The market is growing considerably within countries such as Poland as well with a large number of players in the region such as Zortrax, Zmorph and 3D Gence. There is also a stream of emerging players in other parts of Europe and particularly in Italy such as Ira3D, DWS, and ShareBot. Governments across the world are supporting 3D printing technology by providing monetary stimulus for different areas. The overwhelming support seen across the world could undermine several expert opinions that have previously indicated slow growth of the market in real world scenario. Analysis expects the healthcare 3D printing technology to grow stronger in coming years and peaking in 15 years wherein bioprinting and biofabrication rise to the fore. In Latin America, there are companies such as 3D Systems that are increasing presence clearly illustrated by the acquisition of Brazilian additive manufacturing service bureau Robtec, resulting in creation of 3D Systems Latin America in the process. Along with global leaders, the Latin American region now has over 15 domestic players vying for the market and more are expected in coming years. The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) is also helping LatAm countries exploit their potential in 3D printing. Although Africa currently does not showcase commercial viability in most other healthcare applications such as bioprinting and dental the demand for cheap prosthetics that can help children improve lives is substantially high.
