| description | The paper provides an overview of the impact of the integration of additive manufacturing (AM) within the supply chain, the correlation with the reshoring phenomenon, and its effect on environmental sustainability. Implementing AM technologies simplifies the traditional supply chain and significantly reduces costs related to transport and warehousing. Furthermore, it allows for a considerably reduced production of waste. However, the high price of machinery and the lack of current knowledge prevent it from spreading widely. |
