Nylon 3D printing vendors
Quick answer
Eight manufacturers account for every grade and machine in this database — EOS, HP, Formlabs, Stratasys, BASF Forward AM, Polymaker, Bambu Lab and Arkema. Each vendor page lists exactly which of its materials and machines are in the database, generated from the database itself, so the counts below can never drift from the entries they summarise.
The directory follows the same rule as the databases: a vendor appears here because its products are listed, with headquarters, founding year (where the public record is unambiguous) and product lists taken from the manufacturers' own sites. Vendors whose nylon products are not yet in the database are not listed — the directory grows with the databases, in the open.
All vendors
| Vendor | Headquarters | Type | Founded | Materials in database | Machines in database |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EOS | Germany | Materials & machines | 1989 | 3 | 2 |
| HP | United States | Materials & machines | 1939 | 1 | 1 |
| Formlabs | United States | Materials & machines | 2011 | 3 | 1 |
| Stratasys | United States | Materials & machines | 1989 | 0 | 1 |
| BASF Forward AM | Germany | Materials | — | 1 | 0 |
| Polymaker | China | Materials | 2013 | 3 | 0 |
| Bambu Lab | China | Materials & machines | 2020 | 2 | 0 |
| Arkema | France | Materials | 2004 | 1 | 0 |
Counts are the entries in the material database and machine database as of the last database update. A dash for the founding year means the entity's founding is ambiguous in the public record (for example a brand inside an older group) and is omitted rather than guessed.
