About
Founded in 2015 and headquartered in San Diego, California, Fabric8Labs pioneered electrochemical additive manufacturing (ECAM) for metal 3D printing. It prints metal structural parts with a patented non-thermal process that uses no metal powder, and mainly serves the data center cooling, next-generation electronics, communications and semiconductor markets. In June 2026, the company announced that it would be acquired by the Japanese electronic components maker TDK.
