It's always a good idea to check what diameter and filament type your printer
can handle before purchasing! Please note this is 2.85mm filament, not
compatible with 1.75mm-only machines!
PLA is bioplastic as it's made from renewable natural resources. Since it's
biodegradable in commercial compost facilities, you can feel good and green
about whatever you're printing. There's less warping when printing with PLA,
and it works best when extruded between 195°C and 225°C.

PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable plastic made out of renewable resources
such as corn, sugarcane, or tapioca. It is currently one of the most common
materials for personal or office 3D printing as it does not represent a risk of
toxicity. PLA filament is environmentally friendly and is suitable for printing 3D
objects that will be in contact with unheated foods or water.
