Frankfurt, Germany - November 18–21 - Hall 12.1, Booth C129
With a comprehensive portfolio spanning UV-curable resins, thermoplastic powders, and pellets, Arkema empowers innovation across all major 3D printing technologies—including UV curing, powder bed fusion, and material extrusion.
Orgasol®PA12: a game-changer for powder bed fusion
Arkema will showcase Orgasol® PA12 powders, engineered for high-performance 3D printing, offering outstanding powder recyclability and superior surface quality. This innovative high-performance material for powder bed fusion technologies helps reduce material variable costs by up to 50%. On HP MJF technology, “HP 3D HR PA12S, enabled by Arkema” has been widely adopted by 3D users across the globe.
Designing with purpose: Nomura
Arkema and Poolp showcased a joint creation: Nomura, a sculptural coffee table that embodies responsible innovation, algorithmic artistry, and the potential of partially bio-based materials. Poolp’s robotic system printed directly with Rilsan® Clear transparent polyamide pellets, giving life to a form inspired by the fluidity of jellyfish tentacles. Nomura will be showcased at the Arkema booth at the Formnext 2025. Visit us to discover a piece that merges contemporary design with sustainable material science.
Strategic partnerships driving industry transformation
- Axtra3D and Arkema have partnered to qualify N3xtDimension® flame-retardant and water-soluble resins on Axtra3D’s Lumia X1 Hi-Speed SLA printer. Axtra3D is an additive manufacturing company that delivers industrial-grade SLA solutions combining exceptional speed, precision, and surface quality. Their system uses Axtra3D’s Hybrid PhotoSynthesis (HPS) technology, which combines laser and DLP imaging for high-speed, high-precision printing.
- Carl ROTH, a German supplier of laboratory, life science, and industrial chemicals, has expanded its 3D printing portfolio and will now offer a range of Arkema’s N3xtDimension® custom resin formulations for low-VOC and energy-efficient UV curing.
