Technology & Products
Key Products
Filafly® TPU Antimosquitos (mosquito-repellent TPU filament); Filamedic® Antibacterias mejorado (enhanced antibacterial filament); 4D scented filaments (e.g., Melocotón Dulce); PLA Soorim® (standard PLA in multiple colors: Neutro, Granito, Metálico, Glitter, Arena Perlado, Neón, Pastel, Perlado); custom R&D filament solutions.
Technological Advantage
Patented specialty filament formulations (Filafly®, Filamedic®); R&D-focused Spanish manufacturing with sustainability commitment; medical applications expertise; custom filament development for industrial sectors.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Innovative and sustainable 3D printing filament solutions with specialized functional properties (antimicrobial, mosquito-repellent, scented); Spanish manufacturing with R&D focus for medical and industrial applications.
How They Differentiate
Unlike commodity filament makers (eSUN, Prusament), Tecnikoa competes on specialized, proprietary formulations rather than volume/cost. Filatecniko's 90A TPU with enhanced printability directly addresses customer pain point (standard TPU filaments jam in standard FDM printers). Scented and mosquito-repellent variants are novel consumer/niche applications not offered by major competitors. Spanish manufacturing enables customization and IP control vs. Asian competitors.
Market & Competition
Target Customers
Professional 3D printing enthusiasts, industrial fabrication shops, specialty application manufacturers
Industry Verticals
3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing; Consumer Products; Medical Devices (research phase); Specialty Manufacturing
Competitors
Fiberlogy (EU-based professional FDM filament manufacturer); AzureFilm (Slovenia, 30+ years plastics experience, expanding TPU line); ColorFabb (Netherlands, specialty polymer filaments); eSUN (global commodity and specialty FDM filaments)
Growth & Milestones
Growth Metrics
Multi-channel European distribution confirmed: products sold through at least three independent resellers (filament2print.com, 3dprint.me, brildor.com), indicating commercial traction beyond direct sales. Medical/research sector expansion evidenced by involvement in pre-clinical validation of the ACUTE-19 turbine-based invasive ventilator project (published in PMC/PubMed, co-credited with C&T Fabrication S.), demonstrating cross-sector application of specialty filaments. No employee count, revenue, or numerical growth rate disclosed.
Major Milestones
Company founded circa 2016 as Tecnikoa; Product launches: Filafly® mosquito-repellent TPU, Filamedic® antibacterial filament, 4D scented TPU variants; Rebranding to Soorim 3D Solutions / Soorim 3D Filaments (timing unclear, website copyright 2021).
