The first material to be offered via bulk packaging will be RPU (rigid polyurethane) 70, which Carbon will initially sell for US$ 150/litre, down from the current US$ 250/litre. Working with its network of global supply chain partners, Carbon expects to further reduce the price to less than US$ 100/litre over the next year, significantly increasing the addressable market for 3D manufactured parts.
“No other 3D printing company has offered this because they do not have the combination of a complete system for 3D manufacturing combined with first class materials that enable additive manufacturing at scale. Carbon now does offer that complete package,” commented Carbon CEO and Co-founder Dr Joseph M. DeSimone.
