SINGAPORE can collaborate with Asean neighbours on additive manufacturing (AM) or industrial 3D printing, which is expected to generate US$100 billion in value in the region by 2025, said specialists at an event held by German conglomerate Thyssenkrupp on Tuesday.

Established local industries such as petrochemicals - with its expertise in materials - and testing and certification can aid the development of AM in Singapore, said Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) assistant managing director Lim Kok Kiang.
