Zortrax Z-PLA

Zortrax Z-PLA is an ecological material which is derived from natural, biodegradable resources. Its main advantages include a very low shrinkage rate and a high degree of hardness. With no limits to shapes and complexity of models, Z-PLA gives you the possibility to print high-quality parts, detailed conceptual objects, and even consumer goods. Its smooth surface will also provide exceptional esthetics for mock- -ups, decorative elements, and educational models. Z-PLA has become a popular choice for environment-friendly 3D printing.
