3D Printing Filament

3D printing is a manufacturing process where successive layers of material are laid down on top of each other in an additive process. Although 3D printing is often spoken of as a new technology, it has actually been around for over 30 years. Around a decade ago, patents around 3D printing began to expire and it was opened up to mass audiences, with previously large industrial machines now being available in more compact desktop designs.

We stock a wide range of different filaments, each with their own pros and cons in terms of their ease of use, strength, temperature and shrinkage. Make sure to choose a filament that isc compatible with your 3D printer.
