The Ripple Effect of Elegoo's 3D Printing Innovation at IFA 2025
Elegoo's Impact at IFA 2025
Elegoo made waves at the recent IFA 2025, where its innovative 3D printer, the Centauri Carbon, garnered numerous accolades, including seven prestigious 'Best of IFA' media awards and an IFA Innovation Award. The standout performance of the Centauri Carbon underscores Elegoo's commitment to pushing the boundaries of consumer-grade 3D printing technology.
The Elegoo booth became a focal point of the exhibition, merging cutting-edge design and technology to create an immersive environment. Visitors were greeted by a venue creatively furnished with 3D-printed sofas, tables, chairs, and various decorative elements, all crafted using Elegoo's own products. This clever initiative drew significant attention and sparked conversations about the practical applications of 3D printing in daily life.
Among the highlights was the Butterfly Chair, designed by German creator Philippe Bietenholz and made using the OrangeStorm Giga printer. This design not only captivated attendees but also received accolades for being one of the best booth designs at the event.
The demographics of those attending the Elegoo showcase ranged widely—from loyal enthusiasts expressing their brand commitment to educators seeking new engineering tools, and first-time consumers curious about the potential of 3D printing technologies. Furthermore, content creators showed enthusiasm for collaborative ventures to enhance Elegoo's visibility in the market. A strong interest was particularly noted among younger visitors who have begun utilizing 3D printing for personal projects and creative explorations.
Elegoo also managed to attract attention from previously unaware consumer electronics distributors, signifying a promising avenue for broadening the availability of 3D printing products in households. Coco Lee, Elegoo's brand director, stated, "The presence of Elegoo at the IFA goes beyond showcasing product innovation—it reflects our ambition to establish desktop 3D printers as essential smart home technologies. 3D printing is no longer just for professionals; it is now accessible, reliable, and relevant for everyday consumers, enabling them to customize their lives effectively."
The company also illustrated how 3D printing has evolved over the past decade—from a niche and costly craft to user-friendly solutions that come with a large ecosystem of printable designs. Elegoo asserted that this evolution contributes to a new design economy rooted in decentralization, sustainability, and consumer creativity.
Lee reinforced the idea that "The ripple effect of Elegoo continues to extend throughout Europe. Our mission is to simplify and enhance the accessibility of 3D printing, aspiring to make our printers everyday consumer items. We want more individuals to experience our products and realize the transformative potential of 3D printing in both professional and personal contexts.”
