More information Gestionar cookiesNanovia is a renowned French manufacturer of filaments and products for 3D printing specialised in offering technical products.
Nanovia PLA Flax is a PLA-based material filled with flax fibres. PLA is a biodegradable polymer obtained from natural resources, such as starch extracted from corn, sugar beet or wheat.
In addition, PLA is one of the most widely used materials in 3D printing today due to the fact that it does not give off harmful gases and is easy to print. The ease of use of this material derives from several factors:
The low technical requirements of this material mean that it can be printed on almost any 3D printer on the market.
The flax fibre loading improves the mechanical properties of the material and gives a rustic finish to the parts 3D printed with this filament. In addition, the shade of the material can be modified according to the printing temperature, making it possible to create parts with different shades using a single material.
The flax fibres that compose Nanovia's PLA Flax are harvested and processed in France, and are specially selected for additive manufacturing. The organic appearance and surface finish of this filament make it an ideal material for the manufacture of decorative objects and toys.
In addition to its properties and attractive finish, this biodegradable material of biological origin is certified free of oestrogenic endocrine disruptors.
Thus, by combining the printability of PLA with the mechanical properties of flax fibres, Nanovia PLA Flax makes it possible to create 3D printed parts with good mechanical properties and an organic finish in a simple way.

3D printing with Nanovia PLA Flax is very simple. It is not necessary for the printing bed to be hot, although if a hot bed is available, it is recommended that the bed be at approximately 20 - 60 ºC, to avoid any small signs of warping. The extruder temperature should be between 200 and 230 ºC. To avoid material degradation, the PLA Flax filament should not be extruded at a temperature higher than 260 ºC.
It should be remembered that by modifying the printing temperature parameters, different tonal effects can be achieved on the surface of the 3D printed part.
Adhesion of the first layer is key, and probably one of the most important factors for good prints, so Blue Tape, BuildTak, Magigoo or 3DLac can be used to achieve optimal adhesion to the build plate.
This filament is a hygroscopic material. It is therefore recommended to store the spool in a dry place, preferably with desiccant bags. If moisture is absorbed, we recommend using a device such as Print Dry Pro to dry the filament.
