Here’s another project with the worthy ultimate aim of repurposing household plastic waste as useful 3D filament for making new stuff with your home 3D printer. Both the Strooder and the Filabot are ...

It should be apparent to most people that while plastics are great to design with, they’re hard on the environment. While the U.S. has started recycling programs, the amount of plastic produced every ...

If you're in the market for a 3D printer, you'll find one here that fits your needs. The US Environmental Protection Agency reports that the US generated 35.7 million tons (roughly the weight of 17.8 ...

If there’s one problem with the RepRap, it’s the cost of filament. Sure, there’s also the computationally difficult problem of slicing 3D models, but a 5 to 10 times markup on turning plastic pellets ...

Launched in late March, this highly anticipated desktop recycling and extrusion system-Creality Filament Maker M1 & Shredder ...

Canon Ecology Industry has developed two types of 3d printing filament, made 100% from parts of discarded multi-function printer/scanners. These are the first in-house developed products from the ...

Disposable masks have been a necessity during the COVID-19 pandemic, but for all the good they’ve done, their disposal represents a monumental ecological challenge that has largely been ignored in ...

3D printers require a lot of support. They need gadgets and tools and of course, consumables. If you are using a fused deposition type of printer, the type that uses spools of filament, then there are ...
