Deep charcoal-grey PLA — a near-black neutral with a sleek, understated finish.
SKU: SAF-PLA-1KG-DGRY
Product Description
PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable thermoplastic made from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane. It’s the most popular material in desktop 3D printing thanks to its ease of use, low odour, and minimal warping.
A deep charcoal grey, just short of black — a near-black neutral with a slightly softer look than true black on the plate. Popular for enclosures, brackets, and anything wanting a sleek, understated finish.

PLA is naturally food-contact safe in its raw form (FDA and EU commission regulation approved), low-odour, and beginner-friendly. It has a low warping tendency and adheres well to tape, glue stick, or a PEI sheet, with a bed temperature of 50–60°C recommended for the best first-layer adhesion on larger or flatter prints. Stored in a dry place, this spool stays print-ready for months.
