PLA (polylactic acid)

Filament is a versatile, easy-to-use material and is commonly used in 3D printing. PLA filament is a bioplastic, meaning it is a renewable and biodegradable material. As a biodegradable material it is much better for the environment, especially compared to petrochemical alternatives (e.g. ABS). In order to get a quality 3D print, you need to print at a temperature between 190-210 °C, and the desktop needs to be heated to 50-60 °C. Please note that the temperature range may vary slightly depending on the printer you are using.

AzureFilm’s PLA Filaments

are specifically designed to make it easy for all 3D printing beginners to use. We recommend using PLA filaments because they are really the most affordable and easy to use. It is a good material because it has excellent properties and does not shrink when printing. ABS filament is a great alternative, but it does shrink, so you’ll have more trouble getting the filament to grip to the desktop. PLA filament is a material that features a glossy finish and is therefore also used for printing decorative items.
