In the pursuit of eco-friendly and sustainable practices, Additive Manufacturing (AM), commonly known as 3D printing, has emerged as a transformative technology with the potential to revolutionize the manufacturing process. AM presents a host of benefits, including increased flexibility in design, manufacture size, and customization. Despite its numerous advantages, the implementation of AM technology in production industries remains limited. This underlines the require for further exploration and execution of AM to harness its full potential in advancing sustainable and efficient manufacturing practices. This chapter explores the dynamic intersection of additive manufacturing and sustainable production, focusing on materials, processes, and the overall impact on the environment. This proposed chapter delves into the latest developments, challenges, and opportunities, providing a comprehensive guide for readers interested in the environmentally conscious applications of 3D printing.
