The right material for the job.

From rainbow-silk display pieces to PAHT carbon-fiber fixtures, we match the material to how your part needs to look, feel, and perform.

Performance materials

Choose by what the part must do.

PLA & PLA+

Best for: Detailed gifts, figures, signs, décor, and general indoor parts

Clean detail and a huge color range make PLA the go-to choice when appearance and precision matter. PLA+ adds extra toughness for everyday handling.

PETG

Best for: Organizers, brackets, containers, shop parts, and moisture-prone uses

A practical balance of strength, durability, and water resistance. It flexes slightly instead of snapping as easily as standard PLA.

TPU

Best for: Grips, feet, bumpers, sleeves, seals, and protective pieces

Flexible and impact absorbing. Different hardness options let us tune a part from rubbery and soft to firm with a little give.

ABS & ASA

Best for: Heat-exposed parts, outdoor accessories, housings, and durable components

ABS handles tougher environments and higher temperatures. ASA adds stronger UV and weather resistance for outdoor use.

Nylon & PAHT

Best for: Wear parts, fixtures, gears, clips, and demanding functional components

Strong, fatigue resistant, and well suited to parts that move, flex, or take repeated use. PAHT grades improve heat resistance and dimensional stability.

Carbon-Fiber Composites

Best for: Rigid brackets, jigs, fixtures, lightweight parts, and functional prototypes

Chopped carbon fiber can reinforce nylon, PETG, PLA, and other base materials for greater stiffness and a refined matte finish. The base material still determines heat and moisture performance.

Color & finish

Make it useful—or unforgettable.

Solid & matte

Clean everyday colors, muted professional tones, and low-shine finishes.

Silk & metallic

Glossy copper, gold, silver, dual-color, and color-shifting finishes that catch the light.

Rainbow

A gradual multicolor transition that makes every print unique; the visible color changes depend on the part’s size.

Translucent

Light-catching colors for lamps, indicators, display pieces, and creative effects—not optically clear.

Glow & UV-reactive

Special-effect materials for accents, signs, gifts, and low-light displays.

Wood, stone & metal-filled

Composite filaments that add distinctive texture, weight, or an organic-looking surface.
