China exported 2.46 million 3D printers in the first four months of 2026, according to the latest data released by the General Administration of Customs. Overseas sales channels of consumer-grade 3D printing devices have been expanded thanks to the devices' high performance and excellent value for money.

Shenzhen City in southern China's Guangdong Province is a major production base for 3D printers, accounting for nearly 90% of the global consumer-grade 3D printer market share.
