Our new recycled PLA PRO filament is yet another step toward creating more sustainable 3D printing and reducing its environmental impact.
Recycled PLA PRO is made from a mixture of PLA scraps as well as residual waste accumulated during the manufacturing process of our popular TOUGH/HIGH IMPACT PLA PRO while ensuring that original material properties are not compromised.; so it prints and feels just like our original PLA PRO filament!
The main differentiating features of the PLA PRO grade are:
- Exhibits significantly higher impact strength than ABS, even before any post processing or annealing.
- Great alternative to styrenic-based materials
- Prints as easy as regular PLA
- UV Resistant for outdoor use
- Lower gloss compared to standard PLA
- Annealable for higher heat and impact resistance
- Smoother flow and easier extrusion
- Greater machinability than standard PLA allows more post-processing techniques
Because we use a variety of random PLA colors in the recycling mixture, each spool will have a slightly different color shade. Most spools result in dark shades of Grey/Green/Purple/Brown/Blue or similar.
Our Recycled PLA PRO is a great choice for those who are looking for a low cost, high quality and a more environmentally sustainable material solution for everyday printing and prototyping.
Rest assured that this filament is manufactured to the same high quality standards as our non-recycled PLA version. Material properties, consistency, tolerances and tests are all monitored and verified as with any of our standard products.

Annealing Information: | |
Anneal - to heat and then cool in order to make the material stronger and more heat resistant. Annealing (Heat Treating) Instructions To get the maximum strength and higher heat resistance out of your 3D printed part, you may post- anneal (after the item is printed), a procedure that can be done in your oven at a range of 176-266F (80 - 130C) to promote increased crystallization and further improve the heat deflection temperature. Annealing works best for parts printed with 100% infill using the LINES infill pattern (Other infill patterns may leave small voids inside the part. It is also recommended to remove prints, blobs and strings from the print before proceeding to anneal. For best results:
Shrinkage and/or warping may occur. The degree of shrinkage/warping depends heavily on the part geometry. Items with extended sections can also be subject to some movement during this process. Only testing will show how any particular print will hold up. Some customers have tested a water bath annealing process using a sous vide cooker. This can ensure a more even distribution of heat but we recommend annealing for 60 minutes to ensure complete heat penetration. Results: Following this procedure will provide a stronger and more temperature resistant part. This will allow you to reach the full potential of the filament and printing process for your part. |
