ABCorp 3D's new 60,000-square-foot advanced manufacturing center in Columbia, Tennessee expands its U.S.-based capacity for high‑volume, secure additive manufacturing across a broad range of 3D printing applications and materials. The new facility strengthens ABCorp 3D's ability to serve fast‑growing sectors while improving speed, scalability, and distribution.
BOSTON, Jan. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ABCorp, a global leader in secure manufacturing, is pleased to announce the opening of its new advanced manufacturing center in Columbia, Tennessee. The nearly 60,000-square-foot site expands the company's U.S.-based capacity for high-volume additive manufacturing and supports a wide range of 3D printing applications and materials.
ABCorp 3D was established in 2020 within ABCorp's secure manufacturing infrastructure, headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, and is supported by more than two centuries of American-made production expertise. For five years, the division grew and expanded, adding multiple HP production systems to serve rapid customer and market demand across the medical, industrial, consumer, government, and defense sectors.
The addition of the Columbia, TN facility is designed to meet growing demand for reliable, secure, and scalable production across high-growth sectors with a broad library of materials. Drones and robotics may headline the current market expansion, but the new site also strengthens ABCorp 3D's production capabilities across healthcare and MedTech, industrial automation, aerospace and defense, automotive, and large-scale consumer customization. Its location near Nashville and Memphis provides access to primary medical and technology hubs, as well as one-day domestic ground shipping to 80 percent of the continental United States.
"The development and applications of 3D printing technology continue to astound us," says Bill Brown, CEO of ABCorp. "In the early days, 3D printing was viewed as limited to prototyping or urgently needed parts for difficult to serve use-cases. As 3D technology continues to evolve, the application and market has expanded at a progressive rate. We're at a point where the break-even between 3D printing and injection molding is a significant disruptor in advanced manufacturing, thanks to innovation in technology, equipment, and materials."
François Minec, VP & Global Head of Sales and Business Development, HP Additive Manufacturing Solutions adds, "ABCorp 3D's continued investment in HP Multi Jet Fusion technology reflects how additive manufacturing is driving production efficiency at scale. As a long-standing HP partner, ABCorp 3D is leveraging the industry's most productive 3D printing solution to deliver exceptional cost-per-part, speed, and design flexibility, helping customers transform advanced manufacturing, accelerate innovation, and strengthen supply chains."
Neil Glazebrook, VP of 3D Solutions at ABCorp 3D, notes that the expansion reflects both the industry's momentum and the business's evolution. "We started ABCorp 3D with a few machines and the belief that we could deliver something different in the additive market. Today, we celebrate two full-scale sites, a broad materials portfolio, and customer partnerships that have been with us since the beginning. Those relationships, combined with the capabilities of this new facility and a highly secure environment, are what set us apart. We are just getting started."
