Why To Choose Prusament
Prusament is a premium-grade material made by the same people who build the printers. Every spool is manufactured in-house with consistent color and ±0.02 mm precision. You can verify it yourself, down to the last meter.
Guaranteed Color Consistency
Every Prusament color is formulated and locked to a documented spectroscopic recipe. Prusa tests every batch against the standard before it ships. The result: if you run out mid-project and order a second spool, the colors will match perfectly.
±0.02 mm Manufacturing Precision
Some manufacturers claim similar numbers, but claims without proof are just marketing. We measure and record diameter and ovality continuously across the full length of every spool, and we publish the actual data.
High Quality You Can Check Yourself
Every Prusament spool comes with the actual measured data from manufacturing: diameter readings along the entire length, weight, and ovality. We're the only filament manufacturer in the world that does this.
Perfect Winding On Every Spool
Our PLA filament is wound under controlled tension on precision machines. Every spool goes through a final inspection before shipping. The result is a spool that feeds smoothly from start to finish. Also, it looks great every time.
Made In The EU And USA
Prusament is manufactured in our facilities in the Czech Republic (Europe) and Delaware (United States). That means faster shipping, lower import duties where applicable, and a supply chain under our full control.
There's no third-party manufacturer who can quietly change a raw material supplier. No surprise batch failures from a factory you've never visited.
Official Prusament Brand Colors
When we started the Printables Brands initiative, we wanted to bridge the gap between the physical products you meet every day and the 3D printer on your desk. With this collaboration, we took that philosophy one step further. The result is something never seen before: A filament manufacturer teaming up with a well-known brand to make a material of exact color available for everyone, and easy to recognize. And promoted by both sides.
- Perfect Color Match
- Reliable Filament
PETG is the easiest technical material to print with
PETG is one of the most popular materials when it comes to rapid prototyping and printing cheap, yet functional mechanical components. This material offers fast and reliable printing with little warping and decent detail. Such parameters are valued among both beginners and professionals, as they make their work as easy as possible.
Durable material
PETG is durable in thick layers and bendable in thin layers. It slightly bends and deforms upon impact instead of breaking. Compared to PLA, PETG offers better impact resistance, layer-to-layer adhesion, and high-temperature resistance. Such parameters are useful for making functional components of working machines, such as parts of this e-bike .
Print in all sizes
The Prusament PETG has low shrinkage, which makes it possible to print large objects with little to no warping. This is especially useful for printing huge models glued from multiple parts. We use it for most of our extra-large projects, such as this life-sized Triceratops skull !
Basic Attributes
Strengths
- Easy to print, suitable for beginners and professionals alike
- High strength and durability
- Good high-temperature resistance
- Low shrinking and warping
- Easier to sand than PLA (softer, less melting)
Worth knowing
- Glossy surface (highlights imperfections)
- Less resistant than PC Blend and other advanced materials
- Possibility of stringing (may require occasional drying)
- Poor bridging characteristics
New spools with OpenPrintTag
Smarter spools. Open standard. No cloud lock-in.
Starting October 2025, all Prusament filaments ship on a redesigned spool with a fully rewritable NFC tag powered by the OpenPrintTag standard.
The OpenPrintTag attached to your Prusament spool contains essential data about the material and can be read with the Prusa mobile app. It works entirely offline, it is free to extend, and open for anyone to build upon.
Large color palette
PETG is the most frequently used technical material in the 3D printing industry for its easy printability and good mechanical resistance. And we believe that mechanical and visual properties are equally important. For this reason, we offer a wide range of vivid and subtle Prusament PETG colors to suit most projects.
Tips & Tricks For Beginners
PETG is the best technical material to start with
PETG is almost as easy-to-print as PLA. It doesn't require extra surface preparations, storing in the drybox, or using special sheet and nozzle. The overall easy printability makes it suitable for beginners and advanced users alike.
Before printing, make sure the print sheet is clean.
To achieve the best adhesion, it is important to keep the surface clean. The best option is Isopropyl alcohol available in drugstores, which works the best for PETG and other materials as well. Pour a little amount on an unscented paper towel and wipe the print surface. The print sheet should be cleaned while cold for the best results.
Use a glue stick when printing on smooth PEI sheet
PETG has strong adhesion to the smooth PEI surface. Printing directly on it may damage the sheet.
Drying may improve the print quality, especially when stored in wet conditions.
PETG is less hygroscopic than most materials, so drying is not usually necessary. However, if you notice stringing, bubbling, or surface roughness, drying at 55 °C for 6 hours will usually resolve it.
Use superglue for gluing large models
PETG can be glued with many types of glue. We recommend using superglue for most of the parts. Chemical bonding is usually difficult, as PETG is soluble in dangerous chemicals only.
