We Speak Additive Manufacturing

In January 2013, Pawel Slusarczyk founded Centrum Druku 3D (eng. 3D Printing Center), a blog that soon became a cornerstone of Poland’s emerging AM industry.

A year later, his wife Anna Slusarczyk joined him, and together they created several landmark projects: the 3DP COMPANIES DATABASE, where every major Polish AM company made its debut, and the CD3D Industry Awards, the world’s first plebiscite recognizing companies, people, events, and products each year.

In May 2015, they established the CD3D company as the blog’s publisher, also offering training and consulting services.

By 2023, disillusioned with what the AM industry had become in Poland and worldwide, the Slusarczyks sold Centrum Druku 3D, renamed the company COLORISED, and left the sector for other projects.

In mid-2024, however, Pawel returned to commenting on AM, first on LinkedIn and then Substack, becoming a leading voice exposing the industry’s crisis after years of self-deception about its own significance. His key publications: 3DP War Journal and The 3D Printing Journal, shifted the narrative toward greater honesty.

In January 2025, Anna rejoined to co-create The 3D Printing World Guide. Today, under the name Slusarczyk Additive, they produce uncompromising market reports focused on countries the industry often overlooks.
