Scott Bader se prépare à exposer en Europe, en Asie et en Amérique du Nord dans les mois à venir.

Les équipes de Scott Bader en Europe, en Asie et en Amérique du Nord se préparent à présenter nos composites avancés, nos adhésifs structurels et nos polymères fonctionnels lors d'un certain nombre de salons industriels à venir.

Why Attend Formnext To See Scott Bader

Formnext is held in Frankfurt and in 2024 it featured 860 exhibitors in and 34,400 attendees overall, of which 38% visitors attend this and no other trade show in this sector. The show attracts a diverse audience: production engineers, material scientists, product designers and supply chain decision makers. For companies exploring industrial 3D printing, whether for tooling, functional end-use parts or composite structures – the show is where technology, business and community merge.

Scott Bader’s presence at Formnext is being driven by the same objective every forward-looking manufacturer share: moving additive manufacturing beyond prototyping and into reliable, scalable production. By offering UK-manufactured resins compatible with a wide range of printers, Scott Bader makes it possible to achieve consistent and efficient production of higher quality parts. Combining material science, formulation capability and application support, we meet the mechanical and regulatory needs that production AM demands—while giving you the flexibility to choose the right printer for your setup. Visit our stand to engage with technical experts who understand the full cycle – from resin choice and composite reinforcement to post-processing and part performance.

What Scott Bader Will Showcase

Attendees can expect a focused presentation of materials and processes tailored to industrial and dental additive manufacturing (AM). Highlights will include high-performance polymer and resin systems formulated for stereolithography (SLA), digital light processing (DLP) and other photopolymer routes.

Crestaform3D Rapid - General-purpose, fast, high-resolution resin designed for rapid prototyping on UV LCD and DLP systems. Optimised for quick print speeds and high reactivity to increase throughput during prototype and small batch runs.

Crestaform3D Tough / Durable - ABS-like performance with reduced crack propagation; combines strength, stiffness and resilience for functional/engineering parts and higher-stress applications. Suited to customers targeting end-use components or robust prototypes.

Crestaform3D Flex – Formulated with high tear strength, more tensile strength, better elongation and less cracking after repeated use. Designed to simulate the flexibility of rubber or TPU, to withstand bending, flexing and compression.

Prototypes will demonstrate how Scott Bader’s formulations translate into measurable benefits: improved dimensional stability, reduced processing costs, and enhanced end-use performance. The display will include real-world parts produced for multiple sectors (for example, marine) and functional components that integrate with our broader product range, such as adhesives and gelcoats. Unlike distant suppliers, Scott Bader offers guided support as you adopt Additive Manufacturing, providing tailored solutions to meet your needs without requiring large capital commitments. We will demonstrate throughput and reliability improvements achievable with the right material system and show how our materials can be implemented easily within existing workflows rather than treated as standalone solutions. Example parts include a cable management system with bonded metal fixtures and high-performance white and coloured gelcoat finishes to illustrate a lower-cost, high-quality surface on printed components.

Pushing The Boundaries of Manufacturing

Scott Bader is committed to advancing next-generation manufacturing through sustained investment in formulation science, collaborative application development and sustainability. Our approach is pragmatic and outcomes-drive: partner with customers to define performance criteria, iterate material systems with R&D and validate on production platforms. Sustainability is woven into this process by optimising formulations for energy efficiency in processing, longer life of a part and material reuse, recyclability and biodegradability where feasible.

Collaboration is central to our approach. We work with OEMs, service centres and end users to close the gap between material capability and industrial requirements. Our materials are formulated to be compatible with a wide range of UV LCD and DLP printers that accept third-party resins, giving customers choice when selecting their AM setup. We also collaborate with authorised printer distributors who can provide guidance throughout the adoption process. This collaborative model is how Scott Bader’s additive manufacturing solutions move from occasional prototyping into predictable, production-grade applications.
