Our Filacorp rPLA, just like all other PLA, does not Biodegrade if placed in your backyard. It would only biodegrade under very specific condition found in industrial composting facilities.

‎

To combat this, we chose to recycled our PLA into 100% rPLA that maintains excellent printability while upholding environmental responsibility, marking a significant advancement in enhancing the end-of-life cycle of our PLA within the industry.

While drying your filament before use is helpful, it's not necessary, especially if there are no signs of moisture during printing.

‎

However, if you do encounter moisture-related issues while printing, we suggest considering drying the filament to ensure optimal performance.

‎

This flexible approach allows you to achieve high-quality printing results while maintaining convenience.

‎

Just a reminder: be cautious not to overheat your filament during drying, as this could cause problems. The ideal drying settings are 55°C for 6 hours.

rPLA Prime and Satin are our recycled PLA collections that provide more sustainable options for 3D printing.

‎

These collections have their own unique colours, with rPLA Prime offering the more essential colours (Like Black, White, Grey, Red, etc.), while rPLA Satin offer more high-end colours (such as Gold, Silver, Bronze, etc.).

‎

With using these collections you will have a seamless transition from using standard (non-recycled) PLA to using our rPLA. Both rPLA Prime and rPLA Satin print near to identical to traditional PLA, making it a more sustainable choice while not compromising any print quality.

EcoBlend rPLA is our sustainable solution for utilising transitional colours in 3D printing. These colours, which may vary from from one spool to another, are repurposed into unique filament spools, adding diversity to prints while reducing waste.

‎

By embracing EcoBlend rPLA, users contribute to environmental sustainability while enjoying vibrant and individualised prints.

rPLA Prime is our base rPLA Collection, offering the closest, if not better, quality when compared to it's non-recycled counterpart. Our rPLA Prime filament has a tolerance of ± 0.03mm.

‎

rPLA Satin is our superior rPLA Collection, offering the same quality as our rPLA Prime collection along with the addition of more premium colours to choose from. Our rPLA Satin filament also has a tolerance of ± 0.03mm.

‎

rPLA Ecoblend is a transition of various recycled rPLA collection filaments, which offers a different printing experience when compared to rPLA Prime & Satin filaments. While it has the same characteristics as rPLA Prime & Satin (Printing Settings, Strength & More), it has a higher tolerance at ± 0.05mm and comes in unique colours every time, making each purchase a mystery.

‎

rPLA Prime is priced at €18.99 while rPLA Satin is priced at €19.99 & rPLA EcoBlend is priced at €10.99, so it is a matter of whether you want a standard colour range, more a more premium colour experience or whether you want to be adventurous and try out completely random coloured filament.
