Description
- Filamentive Wood can be used on all common desktop FDM or FFF technology 3D printers
- All Filamentive filaments arrive vacuum sealed with desiccant, in their own shrink-wrapped, recyclable box
- Filamentive rPLA retains the limited smell of virgin PLA
- All Filamentive products are RoHS and REACH compliant
- Storage: Cool and dry (60-75°F) and away from UV light. This enhances the shelf life significantly.
- Filamentive wants you to be fully satisfied when buying from us, so we offer a 90 Day Money Back Guarantee
- Filamentive Wood PLA is approximately 40% recycled wood fibers, and of course the rest is rPLA
- Filamentive Wood is a mix of post-industrial recycling (recycling of internal factory waste) and post-consumer recycling (recovered waste from disposal)
- 90% of Filamentive rPLA filament originates from waste sources, so you have peace of mind you have helped the planet by using our filament.
- Filamentive Wood looks and feels like real wood, it can even be sanded and varnished
- Filamentive manufactures to strict diameter and roundness parameters to guarantee consistency and therefore ensure optimal quality 3D prints and prevent printer problems
- Filamentive truly believes this is the best performing wood filament available
- Every Filamentive spool we sell is visually inspected before leaving the factory
- Due to its low tendency to warp Filamentive Wood can also be printed without a heated bed. If you have a heated bed the recommended temperature is ± 35-60 ?C. We advise a nozzle > 0.4mm
Filamentive Wood is a modified PLA-based type of filament, with the smell and feel of wood. It prints easy, but we advise a slightly bigger nozzle to avoid blocking. Due to a low shrinkage factor Wood will not deform after cooling. The staple of desktop 3D printing - (PLA) short for Poly(lactic acid) is a sustainable and bioactive thermoplastic aliphatic polyester derived from renewable resources, such as corn starch, tapioca roots, chips or starch, or sugarcane, meaning it is more environmentally friendly compared to ABS for example, and produces very few greenhouse gas emissions during its manufacture. However, most PLA on the market still originates from virgin sources, which depletes natural resources faster than they can be replenished. With the growth of 3D printing, there is an increase in demand for PLA sources. Filamentive has pioneered rPLA, still featuring the same great PLA features - such as low warping, limited smell and premium print quality - but now has the added benefit of being produced from factory waste streams as opposed to virgin pellets. All users of rPLA can feel good about reducing the demand for natural resources and therefore saving the environment, but can also be confident the print quality will still be one of the best on the market!
