PLA filament (1.75mm or 2.85mm) is a filament manufactured in Europe for 3D printers using FFF/FDM technology.

PLA is a biodegradable plastic made from natural resources such as starch extracted from corn, beet, and wheat. It is produced with a raw material and a process that not only matches PLA850 in properties but also surpasses it in some aspects.
