Prusament filaments are wound on a redesigned spool that introduces several improvements for an even better printing experience, starting in October 2025. The new spool features a simple locking mechanism that makes disassembly quick and easy, allowing effortless refills. It also stays secure during filament drying, even at higher temperatures. And with its slimmer dimensions, the spool ensures compatibility with a wide range of multi-color and multi-material printing systems.
Every new Prusament spool now comes with a fully rewritable NFC tag powered by the OpenPrintTag standard. It’s designed to work across brands and ecosystems. It is free to use, free to extend, and open for anyone to build upon. Most importantly, it works entirely offline. All essential data is stored directly on the tag. Your printer can recognize the spool instantly, with no dependence on cloud services or vendor lock-ins. The OpenPrintTag attached to your Prusament spool contains essential data about the material and can be read with the Prusa mobile app.
Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments is Prusas in-house made PLA filament with ±0.03mm manufacturing tolerance and natural pigments. The filament is made of recycled PLA from industrial waste. No artificial pigments are added; the coloring of this Prusament comes from processed organic waste, resulting in a unique shade for every batch. You can inspect the parameters of every spool we made at prusament.com.
Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments is their own in-house recycled PLA filament with natural pigment additives. The filament is made of PLA parts manufacturing waste provided by our external supplier. No artificial pigment is added, the coloring of this Prusament comes from processed organic waste, such as red algae. The organic additives create a noticeable scent during printing.
The Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments has mechanical properties similar to regular PLA, but it is slightly more brittle and hygroscopic. In general, PLA is used for various aesthetic models, prototypes, and other visual parts. With Prusament rPLA Natural Pigments, these parts can be made with significantly lower ecological impact. Last but not least, the natural pigments give rPLA pleasant subtle colors, perfectly suitable for various home decor and other aesthetic purposes.
Nozzle 205 ± 10 °C Heatbed 50 ± 10 °C Recommended Steel Sheet Smooth PEI / Textured / Satin
Before printing, learn about print surface preparation in their dedicated article and material table.
Easy to print
Suitable for prints of any size
Unique, pleasant subtle colors
No artificial pigments added
Low warping
Eco-friendly
Brittle
Poor high-temperature resistance
Colour may vary slightly depending on natural pigments
Slightly hygroscopic (absorbs moisture)
Noticeable (but non-toxic) smell
PLA is the easiest-to-print filament we make. It’s reliable and it doesn’t require any print preparations or difficult post-processing methods. If you’re new to 3D printing, it’s best to start with PLA before using other materials.
When post-processing PLA, it’s better to use wet sanding. Without water you’ll quickly start heating the plastic by friction, it will melt locally and deform. Also, without water, the sanding material would clog easily.
PLA can be glued with many types of glue. We recommend using superglue for most of the parts. Certain PLA filaments may be also glued using acetone, however, it strongly depends on the various additives and colors used.
For our recycled filaments, we had its carbon footprint calculated. You can find more about our sustainability activities in our sustainability report.
This rPLA is made in-house by Prusa Research.
1.75 mm filament is manufactured with precision of +- 0.03 mm
Before printing, make sure the surface of heatbed is clean as described in 3D Printing Handbook.
To dry the filament, please follow the instructions in our article.
