Achieve a unique stone finish
Spectrum PLA Stone Age filament is a series of PLA materials with additives that create an imitation of a “stone-like” texture on printed objects. Stone Age filament is made in two shades, Stone Age Light and Stone Age Dark, and is characterised by excellent layer coverage, while printed objects have a rough texture reminiscent of real stone.
The original properties of Spectrum PLA Stone Age™ filaments make them particularly suitable for fields related to decorative art and architecture. Spectrum PLA Stone Age has been used to create dozens of models of objects that already exist, as well as to visualise objects that are yet to be built.
Tip: The additives have little effect on the properties of printed objects. It is important, however, to use nozzles with a diameter of 0.4 mm or larger.
