This matte finish not only gives a rustic and charming look but also provides a better tactile experience, making the printed objects feel more like real wooden items.
This precise dispersion ensures a consistent blend, which in turn leads to enhanced mechanical properties and dimensional stability of the printed objects.
Allowing users to create their desired masterpiece while being conscious of their ecological impact and contributing to a greener future.
Two wood color selections provide you with the flexibility to bring your unique artistic vision.

With the addition of natural wood powder, PLA Wood exhibits the following distinct characteristics compared to regular PLA.
1. Higher Moisture Absorption: PLA Wood contains natural wood powder, making it more sensitive to moisture. Dry before use to ensure the best print quality and consistent finish.
•Storage and Drying: Although PLA Wood is thoroughly dried and vacuum-sealed prior to shipping, variations in transport conditions may affect its moisture level. We strongly recommend drying it right after opening and storing it in a sealed container with desiccant. Repeat drying and moisture-proofing before each long-term storage period.
•Drying Guidelines: For best results, dry at 55 ± 5°C for 8 hours in a blast drying oven.
2. Color Variation: Natural wood powder may result in slight color variations depending on the drying level and raw material differences.
3.Wood-like smell: During printing, PLA Wood emits a mild, natural wood scent due to the wood powder content. It is non-irritating and non-toxic.
