From materials to supply chains, smarter manufacturing is increasingly driven by connected, data-driven decisions. If you missed any updates, here\u2019s a quick recap of what\u2019s shaping the conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-connecting-at-rapid-tct-2026\"><strong>Connecting at RAPID + TCT 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019re excited to share that Shapeways will be at RAPID + TCT 2026 in Boston, where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marleenvogelaar3d\/\">Marleen Vogelaar<\/a>, CEO of Shapeways, will be speaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As North America\u2019s largest additive manufacturing event, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/rapid-tct\/\">RAPID + TCT <\/a>brings together engineers, innovators, and industry leaders exploring what\u2019s next. This year, we\u2019ll be sharing how digital manufacturing continues to evolve from additive to CNC and beyond, and what that means for scalable, flexible production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re attending, we\u2019d love to <a href=\"https:\/\/i.snoball.it\/p\/mYZc33Z\/l\/12\">connect<\/a>. Join us on April 15 and learn how to move from prototyping to production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-thangs-print-store-learn-how-to-launch-amp-grow\"><strong>Thangs Print Store: Learn How to Launch &amp; Grow<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thangs.com\/prints\">Thangs<\/a> also hosting a live session focused on helping designers and entrepreneurs succeed with the Thangs Print Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you\u2019re launching your first products or optimizing an existing shop, this session covers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Selecting the right materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Understanding trade-offs between quality and cost<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Designing for scalable, high-quality production<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you can\u2019t attend live, be sure to <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSdzbAD8vBbPdtr0GaP8ShV93QNwMijjtEFAc405s78DXkGWWg\/viewform?utm_source=shapeways&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=newsletter\">RSVP<\/a>&nbsp; to receive the recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udcc5 Wednesday, April 8th<br>\ud83d\udd55 6pm CET \/ 1pm EST \/ 10am PST<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sustainability-as-a-manufacturing-standard\"><strong>Sustainability as a Manufacturing Standard<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A major milestone this month was achieving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/capabilities\/quality-program?utm_source=web&amp;utm_medium=traffic&amp;utm_campaign=certification\">ISO 14001 certification<\/a>. Reinforcing that sustainability is no longer a differentiator, but a baseline expectation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Environmental responsibility is becoming deeply integrated into manufacturing strategy, influencing everything from material selection to production workflows and supply chain design. Companies that embed sustainability early are better positioned to meet regulatory demands and customer expectations alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-digital-manufacturing-is-reshaping-supply-chains\"><strong>Why Digital Manufacturing Is Reshaping Supply Chains<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the clearest trends this month: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/defense-supply-chains-failures\">traditional supply chains are under pressure<\/a> and digital manufacturing is stepping in as a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We explored how additive manufacturing enables:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>On-demand production<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduced dependency on global logistics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Faster iteration and prototyping<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More resilient, distributed production models<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In sectors like defense, aerospace, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/additive-manufacturing-for-defense-accelerating-drone-and-aerospace-innovation\">drone development,<\/a> these capabilities are already accelerating innovation while reducing risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-materials-innovation-from-flexibility-to-industrial-strength\"><strong>Materials Innovation: From Flexibility to Industrial Strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Materials continue to play a central role in advancing additive manufacturing into end-use production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This month, we highlighted:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/materials\/tpe-thermoplastic-elastomer\">Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)<\/a>:<\/strong> Ideal for flexible, durable parts produced with SLS technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stainless Steel (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/materials\/stainless-steel-17-4ph\">17-4PH <\/a>&amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/materials\/stainless-steel-316l\">316L<\/a>):<\/strong> Delivering strength, corrosion resistance, and complex geometries for industrial applications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As material options expand, so does the ability to match performance requirements with production efficiency making material selection a strategic decision, not just a technical one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-mass-customization-is-becoming-essential\"><strong>Why Mass Customization Is Becoming Essential<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shapeways.com\/blog\/mass-customization-manufacturing\">Mass customization<\/a> is rapidly moving from concept to necessity.
