High-quality printouts and minimized downtime

The MakerBot PLA filament makes it possible to achieve higher quality printing results.

It also prevents printing faults due to filament errors and thus minimizes downtimes.

MakerBot PLA filament is very suitable for beginners in the field of desktop 3D printing, as it is easy to use and works excellently with almost all models.


Composed from the purest granules on the market

MakerBot PLA is a non-toxic material made from sugar, which is extracted from corn – a biodegradable plastic made from renewable raw materials.

It smells slightly sweet when heated.

Its colorants are food-safe and contain no heavy metals, phthalates or BPA.


Each color is extensively tested

Each color is subjected to long-term tests, which require 18-24 hours of printing time. This guarantees no deviations in color or quality – regardless of the printing time.

They are also tested at 100µ and 200µ layer height on all MakerBot 3D printers to ensure that they work and print reliably with all the capabilities that MakerBot Desktop offers.


MakerBot PLA filament achieves top marks in recent study by 3D Matter

MakerBot PLA filament was awarded top marks in a recent study by 3D Matter. The following criteria were tested: Performance (mechanical resistance of the material), quality (feel and look of the finished print) and processing (handling of the filament).
