Strong & Flexible Plastics

The most popular material, the Strong & Flexible plastic is laser sintered nylon plastic that comes in a variety of colors and finishes. The material is incredibly versatile; when thin, it is flexible enough to be used for hinges and springs yet strong enough to be used as structural components when thicker. This material can be used for a wide variety of applications, from iPad cases to jewelry, remote controlled toys to bikinis.

Start with a bed of powder, and then sinter the powder with a laser layer by layer, solidifying the powder as we go.

This plastic is not watertight, is dishwasher safe, not recyclable, and not foodsafe. It is heatproof to 80C/176F degrees. Higher temperatures may significantly change material properties.
