Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments is a 3D printing filament made from 100% recycled PLA and natural pigments derived from organic waste such as red algae, with no synthetic additives. Its combination of sustainability, superior dimensional quality, and natural aesthetics makes it an ideal choice for decoration projects, interior design, toys, visual prototypes, and large or detailed functional parts. This eco-friendly PLA filament offers a stable printing experience, with low warping, excellent accuracy (±0.03 mm), and unique soft colors that vary depending on the pigment source, giving each print a distinctive visual finish.

Thanks to its rigid structure and ease of use, Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments is perfect for applications where an environmentally friendly material is needed without sacrificing technical performance. It prints effortlessly even on open-frame printers and allows high-speed operation without compromising quality. It is a non-abrasive filament, compatible with standard nozzles—ideal for those who prioritize efficiency, aesthetics, and environmental awareness. Although it has moderate heat resistance and some brittleness, its performance is highly reliable for non-structural or low-stress mechanical uses.

Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments is an easy-to-print filament, ideal for beginners and experts. It does not require an enclosure or special nozzles and delivers excellent results even on open printers. For good adhesion, it is recommended to use a bed between 40°C and 60°C, with surfaces like PEI, glass, painter's tape, or adhesive tape.

The ideal extrusion temperature is 205°C (±10°C), with a layer fan at 100% throughout the print, ensuring high quality in details and finishes. Post-processing should be done with wet sanding to avoid warping due to friction. Parts can be easily joined with cyanoacrylate (superglue).

Thanks to its low warping, dimensional accuracy (±0.03 mm), and natural finish, this recycled PLA filament allows for clean, fast, and sustainable prints with excellent stability and aesthetics.
