About Us

ABOUT UNION

Union 3D Printing is passionate about Sustainable Manufacturing. After over 3 years in business, Union has decided on a more sustainable future. For us. For you. For our environment.

As of March 1st, 2021, Union 3D Printing has committed to donating trees for all orders for products and services.

Why?

Union 3D Printing has always wanted to implement a social-environmental initiative, and we are proud of where we have landed.

We have produced over 50,000+ parts, and used thousands of kilograms of material. Donating trees is one way we are working on off-setting our carbon footprint. Additionally, we are exploring additional ways to reduce our net-waste by up-cycling and utilizing recycled products where possible. 

Look for the tree icon 🌳 for products where we donate additional trees.

We have partnered with an incredible organization called Eden Reforestation Projects. Planting trees helps fight back against deforestation, provides jobs, and saves lives.

 

Our Story

Union 3D Printing and Design started in late 2017 when two old high school friends (Kris and Mark) started showing off their printed creations and were met with overwhelming demand. With the support of their beautiful wives (Katie and Cynthia) Union 3D Printing and Design was formed. The team has since quickly grown to having a fleet of 3D printers, with clients all over the Edmonton area. 

Union has continued to develop in knowledge and skills to always bring the best service quality, and products to our customers.
