Middle East Additive Manufacturing (AM) Market was valued at USD 0.20 billion in 2022, and is predicted to reach USD 1.06 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 22.9% from 2023 to 2030. Additive manufacturing, commonly referred to as 3D printing, is a manufacturing technique that involves layering different materials to gradually construct objects. The process is directed by a computer, which utilizes data from CAD software or 3D object scanners to precisely shape the materials. To initiate the additive manufacturing process, a design is necessary, which can be created using CAD software or by scanning an existing object. The software then transforms the design into a detailed blueprint that provides specific instructions to the 3D printer. Once the blueprint is transferred, the actual production of the object commences. The duration required to complete the additive manufacturing process varies depending on the size of the object, with smaller items generally being manufactured more efficiently and within a shorter timeframe.
The setting up of various 3D printing manufacturing units, along with the emergence of 3D printing technology-based start-ups in the region is expected to bolster the growth of the industrial manufacturing sector in the Middle East region. For instance, in August 2021, Pantheon Development, a Dubai-based real estate developer announced that it is planning to weigh up an entire eleven-storey building with 3D printing. The company further plans to drive Dubai’s wider goal of 3D printing 25% of its buildings by 2030, and also initiate the construction of the first skyscraper of its kind in the world.
The increasing demand for cost-effective replacement organs in the healthcare sector has led to high adoption of 3D printing technology in healthcare applications, which is expected to boost the growth of the additive manufacturing market in Middle East. For instance, in February 2020, Dubai Health Authority unveiled a 3D Printing Lab in its Innovation Centre that provides medical professionals at DHA with patient-specific anatomical models, allowing them to conduct detailed pre-operative analysis and to improve patient communication at DHA’s hospitals including Rashid, Latifa, Dubai, and Hatta Hospital.
The cost of additive manufacturing technologies, including printers, materials, and post-processing equipment is relatively high compared to traditional manufacturing methods. This cost factor may limit the accessibility and adoption of additive manufacturing, particularly for small and medium-sized businesses, which is expected to restrain the growth of the market.
Continuous advances in additive manufacturing technology, such as greater printer capabilities, improved materials, and more efficient post-processing procedures, have supported industry expansion. These developments allow for improved quality, faster production, and more application options, driving more sectors to adopt additive manufacturing. As a result, it is expected to create ample opportunities for the future.
