Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a sustainable, biodegradable plastic derived from renewable resources, popular for 3D printing. Recycled PETG utilizes waste to produce durable 3D objects. Wood filaments combine PLA with wood dust for an eco-friendly, wood-like print material. Algix 3D, made from algae, aids environmental cleanup efforts. FDM technology can work with recycled materials, reducing the carbon footprint. PLA blends feature natural fibers like bamboo, enhancing biodegradability. Mushroom mycelium represents an innovative, sustainable printing material. Biopolymer alloys improve material properties. Reclaimed wood filament promotes a circular economy. PHA filaments, derived from microorganism-produced polyester, offer a sustainable printing option.
