Technology & Products
Key Products
Standard filaments (PLA, PET, ABS, PP, rPET, BVOH); Advanced filaments (PLA Tough, PLA PRO1, ABS Fusion+, PA, ASA, PC/ABS FR, PPSU, PP GF30, PET CF15, PAHT CF15, PA6 GF30, PC GF30); Flexibles (TPU 85A, 95A, 64D, Foaming TPU); application-specific lines for medical insoles.
Technological Advantage
Long-standing (13+ years) in-house filament formulation and extrusion expertise inherited from Innofil3D/BASF Forward AM lineage; thermal annealing processes for enhanced heat resistance; broad engineering-grade material portfolio (PPSU, PC/ABS FR, glass/carbon-fiber reinforced compounds).
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Prime-quality, reliable filaments manufactured in Emmen, Netherlands, for makers, designers, printer manufacturers, distributors and industrial customers.
How They Differentiate
Decade-plus legacy filament engineering team (ex-Innofil3D/BASF Forward AM) producing prime-quality FFF filaments from a single European (Emmen, NL) manufacturing site, now backed by a dedicated 3D-printing-focused investment group (NovioScan) rather than a large multinational conglomerate.

Industry Verticals
Medical (orthotics/insoles), industrial manufacturing, consumer/maker 3D printing, printer OEMs and distributors.
