Technology-Agnostic 3D Printing: The Right Fit for Every Application

September 12, 2025

At Formero, we take a technology-agnostic approach to 3D printing. Instead of locking ourselves into one brand, machine, or material, we focus on selecting the right process for each project. This flexibility means you get the best possible outcome, whether you’re prototyping, testing, or producing functional parts.

With deep knowledge across multiple technologies, our experienced team guides you toward the solution that best fits your project. We know it can be difficult to choose from such a wide range of technologies and materials, so we take the time to understand your requirements and recommend the process that delivers the desired results.

A Broad Range of In-House Capabilities

At our head office in Melbourne, we operate six different 3D Printing technologies, supported by 13 printers and more than 23 material options. Each technology brings unique strengths, and together they cover a wide range of applications across many industries.

For projects that require 3D metal printing, we pair our experienced project management with leading local manufacturers. By partnering with these advanced specialists, we provide the assurance that your parts will be produced to the highest standard, with the same level of quality, oversight, and support you’d expect if they were made in our own facility.

We’re proud to be the only Australian 3D Printing Service that can offer this breadth of technology and materials under one roof. While other companies may try to fill the gaps in their capability by outsourcing overseas, this can put quality control and lead times at risk. By keeping everything local and centralised, we maintain full control and deliver results you can rely on.

Ready to Evolve with the Market

Another strength is our ability to adapt. As new technologies and materials emerge, we add them when they bring value. Because we aren’t tied to a single brand, we can evolve quickly while maintaining consistent quality. With in-house DFAM expertise, we help ensure the right technology is matched to the right application.

Why It Matters

By staying technology-agnostic, we keep your project needs front and centre. Instead of working around the limitations of a single process, we match the right technology to the right application. Our experienced team, backed by Australia’s widest range of in-house technologies, ensures your parts perform the way you need them to, delivered with speed, reliability, and quality.
