RE3D, INC.

RE3D, INC. specializes in advanced research and development of additive manufacturing and sustainable materials systems for defense, aerospace, and scientific applications. The company leverages 3D printing technologies to enable on-orbit fabrication, waste-to-resource conversion, and high-temperature thermal protection systems using recycled feedstocks and thermoset foams. Their technical expertise spans end-to-end design and prototyping of mission-critical components for austere environments, with a focus on closed-loop material cycles, power-efficient mobile recycling platforms, and space-qualified additive processes. RE3D’s unique differentiator lies in its integration of circular economy principles with defense-grade engineering, delivering scalable, field-deployable manufacturing solutions that reduce logistical burdens and enhance operational resilience. The contractor has delivered innovative R&D solutions to the Department of Defense, NASA, and the National Science Foundation, primarily through SBIR and STTR programs. For the DoD, they have developed mobile 3D printing systems for base waste transformation and logistics optimization; for NASA, they have advanced on-orbit additive manufacturing using recycled spacecraft waste and high-temp polymer systems for thermal shielding. The National Science Foundation has engaged them in convergence research initiatives aimed at accelerating technology translation from lab to field. RE3D’s primary focus is in physical and engineering R&D (NAICS 541715), where they pioneer next-generation manufacturing technologies for extreme environments. Their secondary capability in commercial machinery manufacturing (NAICS 333318) supports the production of specialized equipment for federal procurement channels. They are positioned as a niche innovator at the intersection of sustainability, advanced manufacturing, and mission-critical systems. As a Women-Owned Small Business and Woman-Owned Business certified firm headquartered in Houston, TX, RE3D operates as a lean, agile 2L entity with deep alignment to federal innovation programs. Their certifications and technical rigor position them as a trusted partner for SBIR/STTR-funded breakthroughs in defense and space technology.
