PETG 3D Printing Service
PETG is a durable, flexible thermoplastic ideal for applications requiring impact and chemical resistance
What is PETG?
PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) is available through our 3D printing service. It is designed for functional parts that need to be durable, flexible and consistent. With superior mechanical performance than PLA, PETG offers high impact-resistance along with excellent chemical and moisture resistance, making it well-suited for a wide range of applications. PETG can also be sterilized for use in medical devices.
We offer the following materials for PETG 3D printing:
| Material | Description |
|---|---|
| Standard PETG | General-purpose PETG with strong mechanical properties, flexibility, and resistance to chemicals and moisture. Ideal for functional prototypes and end-use parts |
| PETG-ESD | ESD-safe PETG designed for applications requiring electrostatic discharge protection, offering enhanced reliability and repeatability |
