Report Overview

3D Bioprinting is an application of 3D printers in the medical field and involves 3D printing of natural tissues and organs by layering living cells. Its process passes through three stages viz., pre-bioprinting, bioprinting, and post-bioprinting. The output construct of the 3D Bioprinting is also preserved for R & D purposes.

Global 3D Bioprinting Market size- Industry Trends & Outlook Report 2026

3D Bioprinting is an application of 3D printers in the medical field and involves 3D printing of natural tissues and organs by layering living cells. Its process passes through three stages viz., pre-bioprinting, bioprinting, and post-bioprinting. The output construct of the 3D Bioprinting is also preserved for R & D purposes. It is used to develop natural look-alike organ and tissue constructs which are again used for drug screening, tissue engineering & regenerative medicine, and tissue transplantation. The enterprises use innovative approaches and a combination of new materials for 3D printing. They engage in alliances, agreements, and collaborations with diverse market players besides product innovation and approvals to maintain or grow their share in the market.

Global 3D Bioprinting Market Outlook and Trends

Growth drivers 

Demand for High Throughput Models of Tissue

The drug research and development processes need high throughput models of tissue, and it leads to more demand for 3D Bioprinting for assuring effective regenerative medication. It assists in testing the efficacy of the drugs under study so that they closely imitate the native tissue. Due to its high utility in drug development and tissue implantation, the 3D Bioprinting Market holds bright prospects for the future.

Technological Advancements

3D Bioprinting technology has found increasing acceptance in the medical field. It has changed the diagnosis and treatment of various physical conditions through the fabrication of artificial tissues and organs. Bioprinting companies continuously work on the advanced application of 3D Bioprinting in drug development, tissue transplantation, and regenerative medicine for ensuring customized medical treatment, better patient care, and as a substitute to organ transplantation. Significant technological advancements have been noticed for skin tissue development, cancer therapeutics, liver modeling, and bone, and cartilage development. They provide an edge to the market player, securing its market share.

Restraints

Shortage of Skilled Professionals

The Global 3D Bioprinting market holds tremendous potential in the medical field, but its growth is restrained by the scarcity of skilled professionals to operate technologically advanced 3D Bioprinters. To build such capability poses a challenge to this market.

Market Segmentation

The Global 3D Bioprinting market is segmented into three categories based on Component, Material and Application. Component-based segments include Micro Extrusion, Inkjet and Laser; while Material based segments include Hydrogel and Living Cells. The Application based segment is again divided into Skin and Drug Research.

In Material-based segment, Living cells segment accounts for the largest share in the market due to its extensive use in regenerative medicines and stem cells research and increased funding support. It is expected to continue its dominance during the projected period also. In the Application based segment, skin bio printing segment dominates the market in comparison to others, and it is likely to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Regional Insights 

North America retained the largest share in the market in 2019 due to growing state expenditure on health care, technological developments and robust healthcare infrastructure. It is anticipated to maintain its share and momentum in the market during the forecast period. However, Asia Pacific Market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during this period due to increasing R & D activities including stem cell research, growing need for organ transplants and increasing initiatives by market players. China and India offer tremendous growth opportunities for this market because of growing state support, rise in cosmetic surgeries, liberal regulations and little data requirement.

Competitive landscape

The major players in the market are EnvisionTEC (Germany), Organovo Holdings Inc. (US), Cyfuse Biomedical KK (Japan), BioBot (US), Nano3D Biosciences, Inc.(US), Aspect Biosystems Ltd.(Canada), 3Dynamic Systems Ltd (US), CELLINK (US), Materialise NV (UK), Vivax Bio, LLC (US) and others. 

Recent Developments

• February 12, 2020: Researchers at Northwestern University prints tissues that mimic human bile duct by using EnvisionTEC 3D Bio-Plotter. Bile duct plays a vital role in digestion, and its cancer leaves fewer survival chances.
