Transforming Waste into Value

With FormFutura’s Recycling Program

Through our recycling program, you can say goodbye to failed prints and excess materials. This program is currently focused on recycling 3D printed PLA and PET(G) waste materials only. In the future, we aim to also recycle more type of materials. Enabling our customers to submit their leftover materials and failed prints, which we will then process into new high quality filaments. Giving a second life to 3D printing waste.

Three Simple Steps

Step 1 - Sort Your Rest Materials

Divide your remaining materials into separate boxes. Keep PLA separate from PETG. When sending rest filaments, please remove them from the carton spool. Remember, we only recycle plastics, not paper.

You don't need to sort by colour; just focus on separating materials by type of plastics.

Step 2 - Label Your Boxes

Clearly write the sender and receiver information on the box, specifying the type of materials it contains. For the receiver information, use the following details:

FormFutura
Tarweweg 3
6534 AM Nijmegen
The Netherlands

Step 3 - Send and Transform

Once you've packaged your materials, send them our way (shipping costs are at your own expense). We'll shred the rest materials, turning them into pellets and then into new filaments. You can dispose of your excess materials and make a positive contribution to a better world.
