Essex, Brentwood - August 10, 2023 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

3DSourced, one of the largest 3D printing publishers in the world, has announced that it has finished the acquisition of 3D printer filament manufacturer Rigid.Ink.

Rigid.Ink was one of the largest producers of filament for 3D printers in the UK but stopped selling filament in recent years to focus on 3D printing content. 3DSourced has acquired Rigid.Ink to help grow the content publishing side of the business and intends to scale the content on 3D printers, 3D scanners, 3D software, filament, and more.

3DSourced first agreed on the deal to acquire Rigid.Ink from Ed Tyson, the Founder of Rigid.Ink, back in 2022. The deal is now finalised. Ed Tyson is also the Founder of the Institute of 3D Printing and is now focusing on this new 3D printing project. The Rigid.Ink content, products, and brand name have become a part of the 3DSourced website, and work will be done to further grow what Rigid.Ink has created.

“We’re very pleased to announce that we have struck a deal to acquire Rigid.ink, and all the excellent content that the Rigid.ink team have posted over the years will now be hosted on our site,” said a spokesperson from 3DSourced. “Founded in 2014, Rigid.ink was known throughout the industry for manufacturing and selling some of the highest-quality 3D printer filament around – and at a time when 3D printing was still in its infancy, and getting ahold of reliable 3D printer filament was a real struggle. We have agreed on a deal to host that excellent content on our site and to keep it updated as changes and advances occur in the industry as part of our commitment to being the most informative 3D printing site on the web. All the content from the Rigid.ink site is available within this section of our site, and you can view all the posts previously on that site below.”

Deputy Editor of 3DSourced, Scott Hamill, will oversee the content writing, editing, and growth, with the goal being to become the largest 3D printer filament information source in the world.
