Our impact

New revenue and jobs

  • More than £1 billion in new revenues created for licensees and supply chain partners as well as thousands of high-value jobs
  • 2,500+ HSS machines installed across Asia, Europe and North America
  • For each machine commissioned, it is estimated that 1 to 1.5 new high-value jobs are created

90% reduction in part production waste

  • Close to 100% of the post-production powder can be recycled using HSS
  • Currently, Selective Laser Sintering processes generate circa 1200 tons of waste powder per year

Improving the health and safety of keyworkers

  • HSS machines are being used to produce millions of pieces of personal protective and mass testing equipment in response to the COVID-19 pandemic
