3D Prosthetics Market to Surpass USD 3 Billion by 2031 Driven by Customization, Cost Savings, and Smart Materials
Chicago, 31th May 2025 – The global 3D prosthetics market is poised to grow from USD 1.22 billion in 2024 to USD 3.08 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 14.2%, according to Clearview Market Insights (CVMI). The growing adoption of 3D-printed prosthetic limbs, sockets, and orthotic devices reflects a global shift toward personalization, affordability, and decentralized manufacturing.
“3D printing is revolutionizing prosthetics by making them lighter,
faster to produce, and far more customizable,” said Dr. Miguel Carranza,
Principal Analyst at CVMI. “We’re seeing this impact everywhere—from pediatric
clinics to humanitarian missions.”
