ALSO to Introduce HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D Printing Technology Across Europe

ALSO today announced the company will begin distributing HP’s Jet Fusion 3D printing solution across Europe (excluding the UK and the Republic of Ireland).

“Given that 3D printing has been defined as a strategic segment for the ALSO Group, we are excited to team up with the creator of HP Multi Jet Fusion, the most compelling 3D printing technology in existence today and to support the transformation from traditional to digital manufacturing throughout Europe,” said Gustavo Möller-Hergt, CEO of ALSO Holding AG (SIX: ALSN).

“We look forward to strengthening our 20-year cooperation with the ALSO Group. With a reliable and innovative partner that continues to invest in new markets and technologies, we are well positioned to lead the market, unlock value for customers and accelerate the digital reinvention of manufacturing,” said Alex Moñino, Director of WW Marketing and Sales Strategy for 3D Printing, HP Inc.

HP’s Multi Jet Fusion technology represents a real breakthrough in 3D printing, producing functional parts up to 10 times faster than competitive solutions at half the cost. With ground-breaking innovations, HP is tearing down the barriers to the adoption of 3D printing across industries – not least because of the contributions of strong industry partners working across disciplines on the HP 3D Printing Open Platform.

ALSO will begin to ship HP’s Multi Jet Fusion devices and materials, such as powder and fusing agents, in the second quarter of 2017.
