What Drives The Desktop 3d Printing Market Growth?

Another major driving force behind the growth of the desktop 3D printing market going forward is the escalating interest in DIY do it yourself projects. These refer to activities where individuals create, build, or repair things on their own, typically without professional assistance. This DIY trend is tied to several factors, including cost savings, increased access to tools and materials, a desire for personalization, and the satisfaction and accomplishment achieved from completing projects independently. Desktop 3D printing has become a critical tool for DIY enthusiasts, affording them an accessible and cost-effective way to create custom parts, tools, or prototypes from the comfort of home.

This surging DIY trend was brought to light by Houzz, a US-based software development platform, which revealed in 2023 that kitchen and bathroom remodels were the most popular DIY projects. More homeowners upgraded these areas in 2022 28% and 25%, respectively compared to 2021 27% and 24%, respectively. Therefore, this burgeoning DIY scene is driving the growth of the desktop 3D printing market.
