Choosing Your Material
Not sure which plastic is right for your project? Use this quick guide to find the best fit for your specific needs.
PLA (Polylactic Acid)
Best for: Decorative models, tabletop gaming, high-detail display pieces, and indoor use.
Why choose it: PLA offers the widest range of vibrant colors and the finest surface finish. It is an eco-friendly, corn-based plastic that captures incredible detail.
PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol)
Best for: Mechanical parts, outdoor brackets, and items that need to withstand heat (like a car interior).
Why choose it: PETG is the "middle ground" material. It is more durable than PLA, impact-resistant, and won't warp in the sun or under moderate stress.
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane)
Best for: Gaskets, phone cases, RC car tires, and vibration dampeners.
Why choose it: Our Black TPU is a flexible, rubber-like material. It is nearly indestructible and can be bent or compressed without breaking.
Specialty Printing
Color Lithophanes (CMYK)
Bring your photos to life! Using our specialized CMYK Lithophane Set (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and White), we can transform your high-resolution digital photos into 3D-printed "paintings" that reveal full-color detail when backlit.
Silk & Multi-Color
For projects that need a premium look, our Silk filaments provide a high-shine, metallic-like finish. We also offer Tri-Color options that shift colors depending on the viewing angle.
