plastic materials we offer

We stock a wide range of filaments and resins as standard offerings. If you need something that isn’t included, get in touch! We are always looking to expand our materials catalogue.

Consumer FDM Plastics

Plastics suitable for most applications.

PLA FDM 3D Print Christchurch

PLA+

PLA+ is our vanilla ice cream plastic. It’s cheap, strong and comes in a variety of colours. If you’re looking for models, or just want to test the functionality of a prototype. PLA+ is the plastic for you.

PETG FDM 3D Print Christchurch

PETG

PETG is our engineering plastic of choice. It boasts a high glass transition temperature of 85°C as well as high UV, impact and solvent resistances. Perfect if you’re looking for parts that last.

ABS FDM 3D Print Christchurch

ABS

ABS is a staple engineering plastic for injection molding. Boasting higher temperature resistance and strength than PETG, if you’ve been getting plastic parts made for a long time then chances are it’s ABS.

Flexible TPU 3D Print Christchurch

TPU

TPU is a flexible, rubber like filament, making it perfect for seals and gaskets. It comes in a range of shore hardness from 95A (think tire tread) down to 64A (elastic band).

Engineering FDM Plastics

These are stronger, tougher and what you want for high stress applications.

Nylon FDM 3D Print Christchurch

NYLON &

CF-Nylon

Nylon is used in functional parts. This is because of its extreme resistance to wear. Regular nylon has a little flex to it, so if you need it tough and rigid then you might be interested in carbon fiber nylon.

Glass Fiber ABS

All the benefits of ABS, with higher rigidity and heat tolerance.
