3D Printing Construction Market Expected to Reach $3.3 Trillion by 2032

According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “3d printing construction market" was valued at $5.5 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $3.3 trillion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 105.8% from 2024 to 2032.

Construction 3D printing is a process for printing concrete, polymer, metal, or other materials layer by layer using a 3D printer to create construction pieces or full buildings. The most prevalent form of printer is one that uses a robotic arm to extrude concrete back and forth. Furthermore, 3-dimension printers are totally automated, removing the possibility of human mistake. In addition, the rise in government investments in the approaching construction sector expansion is expected to boost the 3D printing construction industry during the forecast period. 

Various governments take initiatives to enhance the living standard of citizen. For instance, in June 2022, the plan of UAE government to construct approximately 25% of new buildings in Dubai as per 3D printed buildings technology by 2032. In order to attain this target, government has selected CyBe construction. Hence, these investments are expected to provide significant growth in 3D Printing Construction Market.

North-America accounted for the largest share of the global market and dominated the global 3D printing construction market in terms of revenue in 2023 owing to expansion of residential and commercial sectors. However, Asia Pacific is expected to register highest CAGR during the forecast period. This is due to increase in R&D investments in developing countries and rise in government investments day-by-day in construction of buildings and infrastructures. 

However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, various manufacturers in the 3D printing construction market had to stop their business in countries such as China, the U.S., and India. This break directly impacted the sales of 3D printing construction companies. In addition, lack of manpower and raw materials also constricted supply of equipment for 3D printing construction, which negatively influenced the 3D printing construction market growth. Morever, reopening of production facilities and introduction of vaccines for coronavirus disease are anticipated to lead to re-opening of 3D printing construction companies. By region, the  market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. In 2023, Asia-Pacific had the highest 3D printing construction market share and is anticipated to secure the leading position during the forecast period, due to extensive demand in the construction & infrastructure segment.
