WOOD

Natural wood 3D printing

Spectrum WOOD is a material designed for 3D printing based on pure PLA mixed with natural wood particles. Spectrum WOOD filament is a 100% organic and biodegradable product. In addition to visual aspects that mimic the appearance of wood, objects produced with this material have a texture that resembles that of particle board.

The material has a unique quality: not only does it look like wood, but it also has the feel of real wood due to the natural wood content in the composition. It is possible to paint the finished prints and perform mechanical treatments. Another distinguishing feature is the specific wood odor released during the additive manufacturing process with this material.

Because the product contains natural wood, each batch may differ slightly in color, as in nature.
