PLA
PLA
Our standard PLA. It crystallises faster than generic PLA, which means a better finish, less stringing and greater stiffness. It is the most economical option and the one we recommend by default for prototypes, models and decorative parts.
What we use it for
Not suitable for outdoor exposure
With continuous sunlight exposure it loses properties and colour. For outdoor use, look at PETG or ASA.

Mechanical values are the manufacturer's measurements from standard test specimens. A printed part is noticeably weaker in the direction perpendicular to the layers.

Otros PLA del catalogo
High-strength PLA
Formulated with Ingeo 3D870 resin, with impact toughness close to ABS but the printability of PLA. It can be annealed afterwards: after heat treatment, its service temperature rises to around 95 C, ideal for functional parts that must not deform in summer.
Recycled PLA
PLA made from industrial waste generated during filament production itself. It prints just like the standard version, with a much lower carbon footprint and the lowest price in the catalogue. Colour consistency between batches is lower, so we do not recommend it for visible parts made in series.
Matte PLA
PLA formulated for a matte finish and smooth texture, with layer lines far less visible than on glossy PLA. It is the material that hides the fact it was printed best: the part looks moulded rather than printed, without sanding or painting. It supports high print speeds while retaining definition.
