Polyhydroxyalkanoate  (PHAs) polymer filament is a material made and eaten by micro organisms (bacteria). PHA is often called the sleeping giant of polymers. It provides a unique opportunity as a solution for reducing greenhouse gases, environmental plastics pollution, and establishing a circular economy. 

Our filament allPHA is made out of natural materials as a replacement for traditional petrochemical plastics. One could label this material as bioplastics and biopolymers. They are based on various PHA building blocks.

allPHA is 100% biodegradable and since it is a fully natural material, produced through bacterial fermentation, it contains no microplastics. 

With sustainability and circularity at the top of our priorities, we can say we have created a material for additive manufacturing which not only delivers a great material to print with, but is also good for the environment. 

An understanding of biomechanics is important when working with amputees and people with prosthetic limbs. It is especially relevant to understanding how gait deviations and pressure problems occur and how they can be remedied. An understanding of biomechanics is essential for Prosthetists as it influences so many aspects of their work during prosthetic rehabilitation. 

Developed in cooperation with Lubrizol, varioShore TPU Prosthetic is a material ideally suited for printing prosthetic and orthotic parts.

Additive manufacturing is making its way into the mainstream medical industry. Most users see additive manufacturing primarily as an enhancement of craftsmanship, not a replacement.

3D printing can be used, not only for the final application, but for the phase before as well – the fitting process – to make sure the prosthetic has the

Lightweight PLA is the first filament of its kind: a 3D printing filament using active foaming technology to achieve lightweight, low-density printed parts. At around 230°C (446°F) LW-PLA starts foaming and it increases its volume by nearly 3 times. 

By decreasing the material flow by 60% you can achieve lightweight parts. 

You can also use the expanding properties to reduce print time by printing big layer heights or extra thick materials. Fine tuning and optimization is required to make the most of your LW-PLA use.

Assuming nozzle size and layer height are fixed, our main input variables are temperature, speed and flow to determine the amount of expansion.

From model trains, trams and cars, to tanks, props and scale model houses, you can create your dream environment using 3D printing

Many hobbyists, gamers and scale modelers are starting to take an interest in 3D printing. 3D printing can be a time saving and fun way to create an object, such as a scale model house for your miniature railway build or custom-made model train, that works just like the real thing!

Want to take things a step further? We'll show you how Chris applied 3D printing in spacecraft scale modeling. And give you an idea as to what filaments might work well for your projects.

So, if you are looking to build your own tiny world filled with trains, houses and all things miniature, build giant scale models, or simply want to visually upgrade your Friday night table top games, we'll show you why 3D printing is the way to go beyond limits and utilize your creativeness!

Artists are renowned for their creativity and innovation. They are always pushing the boundaries of what is possible and constantly striving to create new and unique art. This creativity and innovation are what make artists so fascinating and inspiring.

While creativity and innovation are important traits for artists, they are also important for businesses. After all, businesses need to constantly be innovating in order to stay ahead of the competition. So if you're looking for a way to boost your business, why not look to the world of art?

With a 3D printer, an artist has the means to create anything he or she wants — yes, anything! This technology has been introduced to almost every single branch of the art world, and the end products are astounding.

'Art is a diverse range of human activity, and resulting product, that involves creative or imaginative talent expressive of technical proficiency,

Cosplay is an ever-growing, creative subculture around the world, and 3D printing has made it more accessible than ever before. Whether you’re looking to create props, armor, masks or accessories, 3D printing can help you achieve the look you want in no time.

We’ll explore the basics of 3D printing for cosplay. We’ll take a look at some of the most popular filaments for cosplay, as well as some tips and tricks for getting the best results. And Willow will tell you about some of her work, experiences and usage of LW-PLA.

So, if you’re ready to take your cosplay to the next level, read on!

There are already quite a few car brands, and not just the exclusive ones, that use 3D printing for the production of individual replacement parts. Each car brand keeps car parts available on the market for a certain period. It depends on the necessity of the part in the car as well as for which period – in general for at least 10 years. So, whether you’ve turned your car into a classic one or you bought your oldtime favorite, the availability of high-quality parts can be a challenge. 

Of course our specialty is developing the best 3D print filaments in the world, not car parts. In addition to this, not all filaments are suitable for the job. In such cases, you’ll need to choose your preferred way of how you want to print. Here, we offer material for the FFF/FDM printing technique.                       

You have your 3D printer unpacked, plugged in and running but aren’t satisfied about your print results? You're an architect, an artist, a designer, but not a printer engineer, we understand that. And therefore we will support you with the required information, support and suitable filament.

Honestly, there is no real stone or 'stone powder' in this filament. Why? Stone doesn't print very easy. The colorFabb stoneFill formulation has the advantage of offering a realistic stone look. This filament is easy to work with and a joy to print!

stoneFill is a unique combination of fillers that creates a speckled surface finish on your 3D print. Top surfaces and wall surfaces blend into each
