PETG+ (polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified) plastic is a high performance polymer that has excellent chemical resistance, superior optical clarity, and significant flame retardancy. It is the first release in the Filabot Technical Grade line of materials (FTG) which are available in both pellet and filament form.
Filabot Technical Grade PETG+ pellets are formulated for performance in filament extruders, providing high quality diameter control and an aggressive extrusion speed. The higher melt flow of PETG+ permits higher speed 3D printing, similar to that of PLA. PETG+ exhibits excellent impact strength, which makes it ideal for printing components that need to absorb impact shock without fracture.
Filabot is committed to environmental responsibility. All Filabot Technical Grade material can be sent back to Filabot for recycling into the appropriate waste stream.
