Similar to PLA Print Settings
Print with precision, small learning curve
- Easy Printing: Optimized for smooth extrusion, good adhesion and consistent flow.
- Durable Performance: Greatly increased strength and flexibility compared to PLA.
- Zero-Waste: Fully compostable at end of life, no landfill burden.
- Compatible: Works with standard FDM/FFF printers — no special hardware needed.
Cost Competitive, Premium Performance
Why Choose Biodegradable Filament?
Conventional PLA is marketed as “biodegradable” but requires industrial facilities that most users don’t have access to. This process requires high heat, high pressure and long periods of time. Compostify filament is different: it biodegrades in real-world conditions like backyard compost. That means your failed prints, supports, or retired parts can safely return to the earth — eliminating disposal costs and environmental impact.
Key Advantages for Makers & Businesses:
- End-of-Life Solution: Compost failed prints and prototypes at home.
- Performance: Smooth surface finish, reliable layer adhesion, and predictable shrinkage.
- Sustainability: Gain an edge with eco-conscious clients demanding plastic-free solutions.
-
Compliance Ready: Anticipates stricter rules on plastic use in design, prototyping, and packaging.
