Stratasys Launches Post-Processing Partnership Program, Names PostProcess Technologies First Partner

Stratasys has launched a Post Processing Partnership Program that curates and validates third-party finishing equipment and makes those solutions available through Stratasys’ global sales channels, easing procurement and integration for additive manufacturing customers. PostProcess Technologies is the program’s first participating partner under a new commercial agreement that lets customers buy validated post-processing systems alongside Stratasys printers under a single purchase order.

The announcement, datelined Jan 27, 2026, cited MINNETONKA, Minn. and REHOVOT, Israel as locations tied to the launch. Stratasys said the program centralizes access to validated post-processing solutions by integrating third-party offerings into its sales channels, with Stratasys responsible for validation and PostProcess Technologies providing installation, service, and ongoing support for equipment sold through those channels. Stratasys is listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker SSYS.

Rich Garrity, Chief Industrial Business Officer at Stratasys, framed the initiative as a workflow move: “Customers are increasingly focused on optimizing the entire additive manufacturing workflow, not just individual steps, and the Post Processing Partnership Program is designed to make post-processing easier to adopt and better integrated into production environments.” Garrity added context on partner selection: “PostProcess Technologies is a great fit for this program because they are a well-established partner with a strong reputation, and many of our customers already rely on their solutions today. This agreement builds on that foundation and brings unique value to the market.”

PostProcess Technologies brings automated and intelligent post-printing systems that support multiple Stratasys technologies, including FDM, PolyJet, SLA, and the P3 process. A product example cited by Stratasys pairs the Stratasys F900 industrial printer with the PostProcess BASE Automated FDM Support Removal System. Jeff Mize, CEO of PostProcess Technologies, emphasized the commercial reach of the deal: “This agreement deepens our alignment with the clear industry leader, extending our commercial reach and making it easier for customers to deploy proven post-processing solutions.”

The program addresses a common pain point in additive manufacturing: post-processing tasks such as cleaning, resin removal, support removal, smoothing, and curing often require manual steps and multiple vendors, and can represent a significant portion of total AM time and cost. By validating third-party finishing solutions and offering them through unified channels, Stratasys aims to simplify evaluation, selection, and purchase while reducing integration and deployment risk for customers in automotive, aerospace, dental, consumer goods, and engineering applications.

The Post Processing Partnership Program and initial PostProcess offerings are available now. For operational details and support resources, consult Stratasys’ support pages under the Printers section for the Post-Processing Partnership Program and the company’s investor relations materials. Expect Stratasys to name additional validated partners and expand offerings over time; in the near term, buyers gain a clearer path to integrated post-processing hardware with vendor-backed installation and service.
