Aug22136 19. 3D Printer Supplier & Support Provider of the Year 2025 3D printing is a process in which a material is laid down layer upon layer to build up a 3D object. With technology advancing at a rapid rate around the globe, 3D printing is now regularly being used in a wide array of industries, including aerospace, automotive, architecture and construction, electronics, medical and healthcare, and consumer goods. As the innovative technology becomes more easily accessible for commercial use, its number of users has skyrocketed. Today, we take a look at Inspire 3D, Ireland’s professional 3D printing systems provider and a recipient in the Irish Enterprise Awards 2025. We hear more from Manager Mark Rowan, below. Established in 2011, Inspire 3D was born from the growing need for advanced 3D printing technologies across industries and education sectors throughout Ireland. Though initially launched as a service bureau providing 3D printing services to clientele, Inspire 3D quickly identified a rising demand from customers wanting in-house 3D solutions. This observation led to a rapid expansion, and Inspire 3D soon became Ireland’s leading 3D printer and additive technologies reseller. Inspire 3D delivers a wide variety of 3D printing technologies and brands to its clientele. The company’s extensive capabilities enable it to provide tailored solutions that meet the specific needs of each customer its serves. Alongside this, Inspire 3D additionally offers full training on each of its products, as well as comprehensive after-sales service and application support to ensure reliability and longevity in its products to build long-term relationships with clientele. Having operated for more than a decade, Inspire 3D’s expansive client base has a wide reach, from hobbyists exploring 3D printing for the first time to educational institutions, some of whom have partnered with the company to provide certified training courses. Boasting a proven record of excellence, Inspire 3D is also a trusted supplier to some of the largest medical device manufacturers and technology manufacturers in the country, along with server state and semi-state bodies. Since its inception, Inspire 3D has been committed to providing its customers with seamless access to the latest technologies and materials in additive manufacturing. The company works closely with clientele to develop customised solutions for their specific needs, taking an approach that is not limited to only offering its machinery but also collaborating with various manufacturers and industry experts to ensure that customers always receive the very best possible solution. “Our focus has always been on the customer and their unique requirements for additive manufacturing,” Mark tells us. “We understand that 3D printing is not a one-size-fits-all technology; our goal is to identify the most suitable and cost-effective solution that aligns with the customer’s objectives. We believe in offering only the right equipment for each application, and we stand by our principle of not selling machines that are unsuitable for our clients’ needs. This philosophy is the foundation of our reputation and service, and it is one we will continue to uphold.” This client-centric ethos has earned Inspire 3D a stellar reputation as an honest and transparent company. If a customer requires a specific application that the company cannot fully support, it will not hesitate to partner with external providers to ensure that their needs are effectively met. Alongside this, Inspire 3D pays meticulous attention to emerging trends in the market, ensuring that its superb solutions are always delivered in alignment with the evolving regulations and requirements of the industry. In the last twelve months, Inspire 3D has observed major developments in the speed of printing, particularly with the introduction of the Form 4 and Form 4L by Formlabs. These machines have served as a true trendsetter for industry and medical clients, who were previously subjected to waits of eight or nine hours, sometimes overnight, for parts to be printed. Now, the team is seeing printing times taking minutes, with most prints completed in less than two hours. Building on from this, Mark tells us, “We are delighted to announce that we have also expanded our offerings to include the Formlabs Fuse 1+SLS eco system, to further promote the adoption of additive manufacturing across the Irish market.” Driven by the continued growth of the 3D printing industry, Inspire 3D is continually expanding its product portfolio to remain at the very cutting-edge of innovation. The company is excited to introduce several state-of-theart solutions to the Irish market throughout 2025, offering customers access to the latest breakthroughs in 3D printing to ensure they remain competitive in their respective fields. A number of these innovative new products and partnerships will be officially launched at the Manufacturing and Supply Chain Show, held at the RDS Simmonscourt, Dublin on 28th and 29th May 2025.
