PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer known for its versatility. It combines excellent mechanical and optical properties, making it suitable for a range of applications. Thanks to its low-shrink technology, PETG enables energy-efficient processing at lower temperatures, reducing the risk of warping during production. Renowned for its clarity and durability, PETG is as easy to print as PLA while offering mechanical strength that can surpass ABS.
