PLA+ · 3 Series · Basic & Silk
Add a Clear PLA+ Step-Up Tier Without Overloading Your Range
Use PLA+ Basic as the solid-color option, then test Silk and Silk Rainbow where a high-sheen finish supports a higher shelf tier. All three series use the same 1.75mm / 1kg spool format.

01 — The PLA+ Range
Three Series, Three Clear Assortment Roles
PLA+ Basic gives you a solid-color tier. Silk and Silk Rainbow give you two visual tiers. Test the finish and printing behavior on your own hardware before deciding which roles belong in your range.
PLA+ Basic
The solid-color PLA+ option for buyers who want a step above the standard PLA tier.
Silk
The signature silk sheen — a glossy, reflective finish that reads premium on the shelf.
Silk Rainbow
Silk sheen with rainbow color transition — the standout SKU of the family.

02 — Winding & Consistency
Ask for Winding and Inspection Evidence, Not a Vague Performance Claim
At the assessed manufacturing partner, winding stations use controlled parameters alongside QC coverage and written inspection records. Use a test sample and the available production evidence to judge feeding behavior on your own spool holders and printers.
