Since its inception in 2013, Massivit 3D has partnered with Sartomer, a business line of Arkema, benefitting from its market-leading portfolio of N3xtDimension® UV-curable liquid resins. These advanced liquid resins make up a significant portion of Massivit 3D’s unique, proprietary Gel Dispensing Printing (GDP) technology. The technology enables the super-fast production of super-sized, lightweight, hollow, 3D-printed models up to 1.8 meters/6 feet high, giving Massivit 3D’s customers the power of 3D advertising.

Lod, Israel – The first life-sized, 3D-printed model of a professional female soccer star has been produced using Massivit 3D’s GDP technology, enabled by Sartomer’s advanced solutions. Arkema is sponsoring this famous player, a member of the French team, in the tournament. The soccer player was initially scanned to provide a high-resolution model and the model was then printed by Deko 3D by Sépia on a Massivit 1800. The model has been produced with Massivit 3D’s unique Dimengel printing materials based on Sartomer’s N3xtDimension® performance UV-curable, liquid resins. The resulting display is 1.7 meters tall and was 3D printed in just 11 hours.

“We are excited about our evolving collaboration with Sartomer.” said Amir Veresh, VP Business Development and Marketing at Massivit 3D. “We are adamant that, by leveraging Sartomer’s inherent capabilities and rich know-how, Massivit 3D will be able to further deliver new materials to the market with a significantly faster lead time, introduce fresh applications, and enter new verticals.”.
