ReForm is a sustainable initiative within Formfutura to efficiently manage residual extrusion waste streams and re-use them into high-end upcycled filaments. The ideology behind ReForm is to a make 3D printing more sustainable – without having to make compromises on material properties – and yet keep it affordable.
ReForm comes in several materials - namely rPLA, rPET, and rTitan – which are based on exactly the same uniquenformulations as respectively our EasyFil PLA, HDglass and TitanX filament ranges, but are made out of residual extrusion waste streams which are re-compounded and homogenized into high-end filaments with significantly less environmental impact.
With our ReForm initiative we aim to reduce waste streams, make 3D printing more sustainable, and make upcycled/recycled filament significantly more affordable.

The information shown above is for reference only to find the best print settings. These setting ranges should be suitable for most printers, but depending on the printer, you may want to test outside these ranges. Since printers on the market are different, it is impossible to provide a setting suitable for all occasions.
