United States Congressman and House Majority Whip Tom Emmer said: “Stratasys is helping Minnesota lead in innovation and development as a global leader in additive manufacturing. With the grand opening of their new facility in Minnetonka comes good paying jobs and economic growth. Their investments in the region are bringing hundreds of high‑skilled engineering, manufacturing, and technical jobs to Minnesota. I’ve been proud to support their work in the past and look forward to working with them in the future.”
United States Representative Betty McCollum added: “As a pioneer in additive manufacturing technologies, Stratasys is at the forefront of advancing our country’s national and economic security.

ARCH combines engineering, advanced research and development, applications expertise, and customer collaboration capabilities under one roof. It also includes Stratasys Direct, the company’s manufacturing business. Visitors can see industrial-scale 3D printing technologies and production-grade parts for aerospace, defense, automotive, health care, dental, and industrial applications.
“Bringing our teams together under one roof has a meaningful impact on how we operate, innovate, and serve our customers,” said Rich Garrity, chief business unit officer of Stratasys and NAM Board Member. “ARCH gives us the scale and workspace to accelerate collaboration across engineering, manufacturing, and customer facing teams, enabling faster delivery of high-quality solutions.”
Stratasys also highlighted its partnership with High Tech Kids and support for FIRST Robotics programs in Minnesota. The programs focus on STEM education and exposure to engineering and robotics.
The opening of ARCH follows an independent audit of Stratasys’ Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) management systems at the Minnetonka campus. The audit confirmed alignment with ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 standards and recommended renewal of both certifications.
