PLA
Overview
PLA is easy to print, at low cost. Non-toxic and Eco friendly. A perfect starting point for people new to 3D printing.
PLA is created from all-natural renewable resources, and under the correct conditions, is fully biodegradable. This material is typically used for prototypes or decorative prints; Due to the low temperatures and ease of use, features tend to print sharper and more detailed. Its non-toxic nature means that it can be printed for food and medical applications if done so from a sterile and sanitized environment.
However, PLA prints are prone to snapping and breaking under pressure, and become damaged and discolored from high temperatures and prolonged exposure to sunlight or water.
Used for: Design prototypes, Plastic Cups, Medical Implants, Food containers.

Good enough to eat! Well, not really, but you know what I mean…
I was curious when I saw this filament added to the PLA range and although I don’t use a lot of green I thought I’d give it a go. VERY glad I did! Prints very smoothly and easily on my Zortrax M200+s, the end result being surprisingly tough with a very interesting finish. When sanded to within an inch of its life it gives a very deep, rich green colour which, in some lights almost hints at a touch of brown. The term I’d use would be ‘organic’, so the tin in the photo was a natural step!
TLDR: Great stuff, give it a go
