PETG – Durable, Versatile, and Reliable
PETG strikes the perfect balance between strength, flexibility, and ease of printing, making it a versatile filament for both functional and decorative prints.
It combines the durability of ABS with the user-friendliness of PLA, offering excellent layer adhesion, chemical resistance, and durability against impacts.
With its low warping tendency and ability to withstand higher temperatures than PLA, PETG is ideal for mechanical parts, outdoor use, and food-safe containers.
