3D printing stocks are shares of companies that make 3D printers, materials, or provide printing services. The industry, also called additive manufacturing, boomed in the early 2010s, then cooled as hype outpaced results.
But 3D printing is far from dead. Today it’s a fast-growing niche reshaping manufacturing. The market was valued at $19.3 billion in 2024 and is projected to surpass $100 billion by 2032. Here’s what investors should know about 3D printing stocks.

2. Stratasys
NASDAQ: SSYS
Key Data Points
Stratasys (SSYS -2.17%) was part of the early 2010s 3D printing stock boom and bust, but its business has endured. Currently, management is looking to strengthen the company's financial health with a cost-savings initiative that is showing success. In the third quarter of 2025, Stratasys reported an adjusted net income margin of 1.1%, an expansion from the 0.3% adjusted net income margin it reported during the same period in 2024.
Stratasys serves a diverse set of customers, including aerospace and automotive parts manufacturers, medical and dental companies, and makers of basic consumer products. And these relationships aren't superficial either. Stratsys has a partnership with General Motors (GM -0.35%) that has lasted over two decades.
The company took a major step in diversifying its offerings in November 2025, when it began a partnership with Tritone Technologies -- a collaboration that diversifies Stratasys' business to now offer industrial metal 3D printing solutions. In addition to a wide array of 3D printer models, Stratasys develops software to help users accelerate the time between design and final printing.
It isn't the highest-growth name on this list, but the company expects stronger operating cash flow in 2025, and its balance sheet remains strong, boasting a net cash position of $255 million as of Sept. 30, 2025.
