Description

For outstanding printing results

Made from a premium PET, easy to print and a large operating window for printing. (Temperature vs. speed)

Ultrafuse PET is made from a premium PET and prints as easy as PLA, but is much stronger. The filament has a large operating window for printing (temperature vs. speed), so it can be used on every 3D-printer. PET will give you outstanding printing results: a good layer adhesion, a high resolution and it is easy to handle. Ultrafuse PET can be 100% recycled, is watertight and has great colors and finish.

Ultrafuse® PET is based on food-safe raw materials (granulate), which are suitable for food contact applications according to the European Plastics Regulation. Further, this material is evaluated for Food-Safe 3D printed applications and meets the requirements according to LFGB and Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004.
