Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PETG), and co-polyester (CPE) are all thermoplastic polyesters that offer distinct advantages in 3D printing applications. PET is known for its high rigidity, tensile strength, and chemical resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring durability and structural integrity. PETG builds upon this by offering increased impact resistance, flexibility, and ease of processing, all while maintaining excellent transparency. CPE, closely related to PETG, excels in layer adhesion and resistance to environmental stress cracking, making it ideal for demanding industrial conditions.

These base materials can further be enhanced through specialized variants. PET, PETG, and CPE pellets can be reinforced with glass or carbon fibers, improving their strength, stiffness, and overall mechanical performance. Fiber-reinforced variants are particularly useful in applications requiring structural integrity and durability, such as automotive and aerospace components. Magnetically detectable versions of PETG and CPE, containing special additives, are crucial for traceability in industries like food and pharmaceuticals. Transparent variants offer excellent optical clarity and light transmission, perfect for applications requiring high visibility, such as medical devices or lighting components.

Thanks to their versatile properties, PET, PETG, and CPE pellets are widely used across multiple sectors. PET is frequently employed in rigid, high-strength parts, while PETG and CPE, with their superior flexibility and resistance, are favored in applications requiring impact resistance or environmental durability. These materials are commonly found in industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, architecture, and consumer goods, where they enable the production of high-quality, durable, and often visually clear parts.
