Bring a unique look and texture to your 3D prints with this recycled PLA with coloured New Zealand wool! 1 kg, 1.75mm (±0.05 mm tolerance).
WoolyFil Riverstone prints like regular PLA, but with a stone-like texture and look thanks to the inclusion of coloured wool fibres from Wool Source. This bio based, renewable pigment is fully traceable back to its New Zealand farm of origin. The wool fibres are very short and the filament can be printed with a 0.4 mm nozzle.
Made in New Zealand, including the all-cardboard spool, the box, the heavy-duty zipper bag, the label, and the instruction card.
Recommended settings: Nozzle: 180-200°C. Bed: 50-60°C.

Because this filament is made from 100 % recycled plastics, the properties can vary slightly from batch to batch. The filament diameter is controlled twice - both in the extruding process and in the re-spooling process. We are also doing extensive test printing and mechanical testing to ensure this recycled plastic filament is as good as the virgin material.
However, if this filament doesn't work well in your printer, let us know and we will refund you, no matter how little is left on your spool.

Why is the recycled PLA filament more expensive than regular PLA filament?
Recycling of plastic is very labour intensive. The material has to be sourced, picked up, sorted, cleaned, shredded, and remelted. Products made from virgin material tend not to include these "end of life costs." However, closing the loop and minimizing our use of resources is important for a future on this planet, so we hope you are OK with paying a bit more for this recycled filament.
Can I send my discarded 3D prints back for recycling? How about the empty spools, do you take those backs as well?
Yes, absolutely! You can find the detailed sorting instructions here: https://www.kiwifil.shop/pages/recycling
