Description
Made from Recycled PETG Drinking Bottles
ReForm is a sustainable initiative within Formfutura to proactively contribute to making 3D printing more sustainably by reforming post-industrial waste streams into high-end filaments. The ideology behind ReForm is to a make 3D printing more sustainable – without having to make compromises on material properties – and yet keep it affordable.
Manufacture Process
-
ReForm rPET is made from post-industrial waste from a local bottle manufacturer.
-
The travel distance for the post-industrial shredded PETG waste is very limited!
-
The shredded post-industrial waste then needs to be compounded.
-
The compound needs to be dried before it can be extruded.
-
After being dried the compound is being extruded into ReForm rPET filament.
