What are the top drivers to the rising demand in the desktop 3d printing market?
The rising interest in DIY projects is expected to propel the growth of the desktop 3D printing market going forward. DIY (do it yourself) projects refer to activities where individuals create, build, or repair things on their own, typically without the direct assistance of professionals. The rising interest in do-it-yourself projects can be attributed to several factors, including cost savings, increased access to tools and materials, the desire for personalization, and the satisfaction and accomplishment gained from completing projects independently. Desktop 3D printing is highly useful for the rising interest in DIY projects by providing hobbyists with an affordable and accessible way to create custom parts, tools, or prototypes from the comfort of their own home. For instance, in 2023, according to Houzz, a US-based software development platform, kitchen and bathroom remodels continued to be the most popular projects, with a higher percentage of homeowners upgrading these areas in 2022 (28% and 25%, respectively) compared to 2021 (27% and 24%, respectively). Therefore, the rising interest in DIY projects is driving the growth of the desktop 3D printing market.
