At HP, they believe thoughtful innovation can have a real impact on business, people, and the planet. Hp’s 3D printing solutions enable more sustainable manufacturing across industries like automotive, healthcare, and consumer goods. Using 3D printing for final parts and prototypes is quicker, uses less energy, and creates less waste than traditional manufacturing.

Last October, at HP Imagine, HP unveiled a new partnership with Brooks Running to disrupt the performance running footwear market. The first innovation from this collaboration is the Brooks Exhilarate-BlueLine running shoes, featuring 3DNA, a 3D-printed midsole technology. This technology delivers a propulsive, bouncy ride and is tuned to groups of sizes based on runner data for optimal cushioning and spring.

Brooks will release a limited number of Exhilarate-BL pairs to select Brooks Wear Testers and Brooks Run Club loyalty members. Through wearables, Brooks can access runner data to inform future iterations of shoes featuring 3DNA. Nikhil Jain, director of footwear product line management at Brooks, highlights the precision and sustainability benefits of using HP’s 3D printing technology.

HP’s 3D printing is also reimagining other industries. For instance, HP has partnered with Decathlon and Lonati Group to make shoe elements more sustainably. HP is working with Smith Optics to produce personalized snow ski goggles, and in healthcare, HP’s solutions are improving patient health with personalized orthotics and prosthetics.

Heavy industry and packaging are also benefiting from HP’s 3D printing solutions. John Deere uses 3D-printed engine parts, and Schneider Electric produces filters for its NSX breaker with HP Metal Jet technology. HP’s Molded Fiber Tooling Solution is helping manufacturers produce sustainable packaging alternatives, replacing environmentally unfriendly plastics.
