Which key drivers are propelling the market’s growth?
The rise in the need for customised medical treatments is anticipated to stimulate the progress of the biocompatible 3D printing materials market. Customised medicine essentially involves treatments and therapies that are adjusted to a person’s genetic, environmental, and lifestyle characteristics to enhance healthcare results. The uptick in customised medicine requirement is due to progression in genomics, molecular diagnostics, and the use of AI in data examination, which facilitates treatment fit to individual genetic composition, promoting efficiency and minimising side effects. Biocompatible 3D printing materials contribute to customised medicine by offering the manufacturing of patient-specific implants, prosthetics, and tissue scaffolds, which boosts treatment accuracy, biocompatibility, and overall patient improvements. For example, in February 2024, the Personalized Medicine Coalition, a US-based non-profit organization, reported that in 2023, the FDA approved 16 new treatments for patients with rare diseases, a rise from only six in 2022. Out of these affirmations, seven were for cancer, while the rest were for various other diseases and conditions. Consequently, the escalating demand for customised medicine is propelling the growth of the biocompatible 3D printing materials market.

What emerging trends are influencing the growth of the market?
Leading firms in the biocompatible 3D printing materials market are honing in on creating new and innovative products such as biodegradable resin suitable for light-based (bio) printing. This focus on development not only enhances sustainability but also broadens potential applications, particularly within the fields of medicine and tissue engineering. These biodegradable resins are a type of photocurable material commonly used in 3D printing techniques, such as stereolithography (SLA), digital light processing (DLP), and two-photon polymerization (TPP). In a prime example from June 2024, BIO INX BV, a bioprinting materials enterprise located in Belgium, introduced DEGRES INX. This was the first biodegradable and biocompatible resin featuring shape memory properties for light-based (bio)printing. The sophisticated material allows it to be molded into a temporary form following 3D printing and then return to its original state when exposed to body heat. This opens up interesting possibilities in the field of biomedical engineering. Indeed, this ground-breaking innovation will facilitate the creation of intelligent medical implants and tissue scaffolds, signalling the dawn of a new era in bioprinting applications.
