Many of you had asked for it and here we have it: PLA SILK! It is available in 300 gram and 1 kg spools, 1.75 mm in diameter.

This filament is ideal if you want your 3D pieces to have a metallic-like finish, with a shiny effect and a very silky appearance. Whether for prototypes, models, design pieces or decorative objects. You will achieve a unique, elegant and sophisticated look in each of your prototypes!

We also have it in all these colours: Blue Steel, Copper Skillet, Kings Gold, Mercury, Ruby Pink and White Gold.

PLA Silk or Winkle Silk

Our Silk PLA filament is very easy to print, among other qualities, because it does not require a heated bed and has excellent adhesion between layers.
Another feature of our Silk PLA filament is that it is environmentally friendly, as it is biodegradable and sustainably made.

In short, Silk PLA filament is an excellent choice for those looking for a versatile, easy-to-use and environmentally friendly material. With its unique shine and softness, Silk PLA is ideal for a wide variety of 3D printing applications and projects.

Here are some of its main features:

  • Smooth and shiny result: The SILK effect conceals the printing layers, obtaining smooth and silky surfaces with a unique finish. It is perfect for printing 3D objects with many details and that need to stand out for their chromatic appearance.
  • Superior quality: Based on PLA as the main material, it maintains the properties and advantages of standard PLA (easy modeling, absence of warping and low contraction) and even surpasses it thanks to its high level of light dispersion and reflection, achieving the silky finish that defines this filament.
  • Sustainable and biodegradable: Made from natural resources such as corn, beets and wheat. In line with our sustainable values, we manufacture a 100% biodegradable product packaged in recyclable and reusable packaging.

PLA Silk Characteristics

Our PLA Silk filament features a unique formulation that guarantees exceptional print quality. It is able to hide imperfections in the layer lines giving a more uniform appearance without deformation.

It is a biodegradable filament made from natural materials such as corn or sugar cane. Its silky finish reflects light considerably, allowing the manufacture of objects with a shiny, uniform and silky finish.

Characteristics:

  • Brilliant visual effect achieved.
  • Silky appearance.
  • Metallic effect finish.
  • Easy-to-print, non-shrink material.
  • Odorless.
