Many premium PLA 3D Printer filaments available from other sellers don’t offer distinct advantages, our PLA Pro does. Our Ooznest Materials PLA Pro 3D Printer filament has been designed specifically for industrial use and high speed manufacturing scenarios. PLA 3D Printer Filament (Polylactic Acid) is currently the most popular material used in 3D Printing worldwide. Ooznest Materials PLA Filament is a thermoplastic polymer made from sustainable resources like corn starch and sugarcane.
What Makes PLA Pro Different To PLA?
Our normal PLA Filament is a great material to use in most applications, but if you need a material which behaves more like ABS and can be easily printed in bulk manufacturing applications, then Ooznest Materials PLA Pro should be your go to 3D Printer filament.
PLA Pro can be printed at very high speeds 120mm/s+ with a normal bed temperature of around 60°C, this makes it ideal for fast pace 3D Printing where time is of the essence. Also with a low bed temperature, you can keep electricity costs to a minimum.
Our normal PLA has an impact strength of 3.4kJ/m2, PLA Pro is closer to 18, which puts it right in the middle between our normal PLA and normal ABS 3D Printer filaments. Combine this with the fact that Ooznest Material PLA Pro can be further enhanced by the annealing process, makes it a candidate to replace your ABS filament requirements.
Finally, do you want your PLA prints to be a little less brittle? PLA Pro has an elongation at break of nearly 50% compared to our standard PLA of 20%.
Ooznest Materials PLA still has the same great advantages of our normal PLA 3D Printer filament. PLA is the most popular filament used on the market for good reasons. Ooznest Materials PLA 3D Printer Filament doesn’t exhibit warping, making it very easy to stick, and stay stuck to a print bed. PLA is biodegradable and non-toxic. Unlike other filaments it doesn’t give a smell when printed, and is practically odourless.
WHY CHOOSE OOZNEST MATERIALS?
At Ooznest we live, breath and dream 3D Printing. We use 3D Printers on a daily basis whether it is manufacturing parts for our machines, or just having fun.
Ooznest Materials was launched out of a necessity to bring the widest range of premium materials to every maker at affordable prices. Our filaments are manufactured in Europe to the highest standards, with only premium, not contaminated raw materials.
All our Ooznest Materials 3D Printer Filaments are manufactured to a 0.05mm diameter tolerance. Our filaments arrive vacuumed packed, inside a shrink wrapped box, with an extra special secret treat :). This insures your 3D Printer filament arrives in a pristine condition ready for printing.
Normally filament is wound onto plastic spools. We recognised that winding 3D Printer filament onto a plastic spool is completely unnecessary. All our Ooznest Material filaments are wound onto a 100% recyclable cardboard spool. Our cardboard spools are extremely rigid, they will not twist, deform, or tear from repeated use.
Not sure if our filament is right for you? Don't worry you can just buy an Ooznest Materials sample and give it a try, we guarantee you won't be disappointed with Ooznest Materials.
We have built a reputation for outstanding customer service, and we plan to keep that with Ooznest Materials. A member of our expert team is available by email or phone, for printing advice, or just a general chit chat. We have a no hassle return or exchange process, if you are happy, we are happy.

The pla pro performs as advertised. it appears to have reduced shrinkage compared to chinese pla. it also appears stiffer. the surface has a soft matt finish.

This is a safe goto product and a great range of colours. your service is second none and the packaging is fab

This is an excellent filament that prints well as long as it’s dry. there are cheaper filaments that print equally well, hence 3 stars for value for money.
the filament tolerates a print rate based on volumetric flow capped at 16mm/s when using a v6 hotend with bondtech cht nozzle – i was using 12mm/s for a standard nozzle. i don’t cap the linear print speed, which can be up to 120mm/s on my printer.
out of the bag, this filament will print ok, but prints better if first dried at 60c for a few hours. the packaging does have desiccant, in the form of a silica gel bag, but i suspect that the filament has a higher affinity for water than the silica gel! with freshly unwrapped filament, the relative humidity (rh) in my storage boxes rises to around 35%. with freshly dried filament, i can hold rh in my storage boxes at around 10% using type 3a molecular sieve beads, that i believe to be a more suitable desiccant.

I really struggled with this filament at first and was on the verge of giving it a poor review. However, now I’ve got it all tuned in, it is super reliable. I’ve tried the Royal Blue and Iron Grey and both work brilliantly. I’m printing on a PrintBite+ surface which seems to work very well with it. 70 degC bed temp, 220 deg nozzle temp.
I just wish it was available in more colours.
