Reflow

So far 14 different compounds have been made and will be tested by Reflow in Amsterdam. Reflow will test this by making filament for the 3D printer on a small scale and on a production scale. These filaments can be 3D printed, to evaluate warping performance. The goal is to limit yourself to the best connections.

If the warpage problem is fixed using these natural fibers, the company will have a new filament to be launched which will be labelled as a greener product  and be compared with virgin grade 3D printing filaments, eg, PP filament.
Fun fact: the plastic from used fishnets is green of itself so that’s why it is also literally greener. 

Reflow is continually trying to create more environmentally friendly filament for 3D printers. In order to express how ‘’green’’ a product really is they will perform life circle analyses on their products. This way (in the near future), customers will be able to choose filament depending on cost, quality and impact on environment.
