Visionary Glass Packaging Manufacturer Invests in 3D Printing

Allied is the first glass packaging company in the UK to make available 3D printing as part of their visionary design service, the technology giving the company’s team of creative designers the ability to  go from a flat screen to an actual physical bottle, Steve Glover, Product Design Engineer at Allied Glass says:“The acquisition of our new 3D printer allows our team to bring our design ideas to life, physical prototypes allowing investigation and interaction with the product, so before a bottle is produced our customers can touch it, feel it, turn it and look inside it.In essence they can react emotionally to it and fully evaluate it.”
