Why To Choose Prusament

Prusament is a premium-grade material made by the same people who build the printers. Every spool is manufactured in-house with consistent color and ±0.02 mm precision. You can verify it yourself, down to the last meter.

  • Guaranteed Color Consistency

    Every Prusament color is formulated and locked to a documented spectroscopic recipe. We test every batch against the standard before it ships. The result: if you run out mid-project and order a second spool, the colors will match perfectly.

  • ±0.02 mm Manufacturing Precision

    Some manufacturers claim similar numbers, but claims without proof are just marketing. We measure and record diameter and ovality continuously across the full length of every spool, and we publish the actual data.

  • Spool-level production data can be accessed through the QR code on the spool.

    Every Prusament spool comes with the actual measured data from manufacturing: diameter readings along the entire length, weight, and ovality. We're the only filament manufacturer in the world that does this.

  • Perfect Winding On Every Spool

    Our PLA filament is wound under controlled tension on precision machines. Every spool goes through a final inspection before shipping. The result is a spool that feeds smoothly from start to finish. Also, it looks great every time.

Made In The EU And USA

Prusament is manufactured in our facilities in the Czech Republic (Europe) and Delaware (United States). That means faster shipping, lower import duties where applicable, and a supply chain under our full control.

There's no third-party manufacturer who can quietly change a raw material supplier. No surprise batch failures from a factory you've never visited.

About PLA

flower pots

PLA is the best looking material you can print with

PLA is the easiest material to print and the first choice of most users, thanks to its good looks. It is inexpensive and suitable for beginners and advanced users alike. It is capable of printing both large and detailed models, figures, and quick prototypes that don’t require increased resistance.

PrusaCaster

Large models with little to no warping

The Prusament PLA has low shrinkage, which makes it possible to print large objects with little to no warping. This is especially useful for printing huge models glued from multiple parts. Take a look at some of our projects, such as this PrusaCaster , for example!

tank

Tiny models with sharp details

The low melting temperature in combination with fast cooling enables easy printing of detailed parts, bridges, and overhangs.

Basic Attributes

  • Strengths

    • Easy to print
    • Suitable for prints of any size
    • Hard
    • Low warping

  • Worth knowing

    • For mechanically stressed parts, consider using PETG or PC Blend
    • We recommend using PETG or ASA for parts with better high-temperature resistance
    • Difficult to sand (hard material, melts easily)

New spools with OpenPrintTag

Smarter spools. Open standard. No cloud lock-in.

Starting October 2025, all Prusament filaments ship on a redesigned spool with a fully rewritable NFC tag powered by the OpenPrintTag standard.

The OpenPrintTag attached to your Prusament spool contains essential data about the material and can be read with the Prusa mobile app. It works entirely offline, it is free to extend, and open for anyone to build upon.

Large color palette

The best-looking models from FFF 3D printers are usually made from PLA. The material has a matte to satin surface, which is valued among most users as it hides imperfections and looks more professional. We offer a large palette of both vivid and subtle colors of Prusament PLA, which can be used for multiple purposes, such as lithophane images, various home decor models, toys, parts of costumes, and much more.

Frequently asked questionsAnswers to common questions about this product.
PLA is the best filament to start with.

PLA is a practical starting material for learning filament printing. Use the profile and surface preparation recommended for the specific spool and printer.

Before printing, make sure the print sheet is clean.

To achieve the best adhesion, it is important to keep the surface clean. The best option is Isopropyl alcohol available in drugstores, which works the best for PLA and other materials as well. Pour a little amount on an unscented paper towel and wipe the print surface. The print sheet should be cleaned while cold for the best results.

Drying is not usually necessary.

PLA is less hygroscopic than most materials, so drying is not usually necessary. However, if you notice stringing, bubbling, or surface roughness after long storage, drying at 45–50 °C for 4–6 hours will usually resolve it.

Try wet sanding when postprocessing PLA print.

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.

Use superglue for gluing large models.

PLA parts can be joined with suitable adhesives; Prusa recommends superglue for many applications. Solvent response varies with formulation, additives and colour, so do not assume all PLA can be solvent bonded in the same way.
