70% biobased 3D printing filament

COMPOST3D®2

COMPOST3D® 2 is a 3D printing filament with 70% biobased content, measured according to EN 16785-1. It was developed so used prints can be composted at home: in lab tests (ISO 14855, 28°C), ground-up material starts to biodegrade within the first 6 months. Thicker parts take longer to break down.

Extra information

General

  • Printing with more ease and comfort compared to home compostable 3D printing filaments in the market (e.g., easier build platform release)
  • Printing performance comparable to standard PLA, with great overhang and bridging capabilities
  • 50% higher layer adhesion and overall increased mechanical properties compared to commercial home compostable 3D printing filaments

Available in 4 different colors

Silk White

Black

Considerations for optimal printing

  • Leave the printed specimen on the build plate until it has completely cooled down before removal.
  • Dry the filament at 50°C for 6-8h before printing.
  • Preferably keep the filament dry during printing (e.g., in a dry box) for optimal results
  • Printing in an enclosure is not required, but recommended for optimal results.
  • No additional print bed adhesion needed.
