The Wohlers Report 2025 has stated that the global Additive Manufacturing industry grew by 9.1% to $21.8 billion in 2024. Most of this growth was attributed to the AM industry’s continuing expansion in Asia – particularly in China. Europe and the Middle East (EMEA) and the Americas saw either slight growth or decline, the report claimed.

The report also noted that revenue for AM machine manufacturers declined, whereas revenue for other segments of the industry grew, with material producers achieving the highest year-on-year growth.

Information gathered by the Wohlers Associates team suggests that although the weighted average growth rates in the AMER and EMEA were ±5%, many companies in these regions have experienced double-digit positive revenue growth rates, further highlighting the importance of strategy and market positioning.
