Looks like a spool of Arc Bio. I’m testing out some PLAtinum, but finding it hard to find things that I want to print!

Yeah…I was asked to refer to it as Taulman3D PLA as per the post - re-branding for launch I guess? Anyway…What’s PLAtinum?

I have a spool of Blu-Print with the same issue.

I definitely prefer them calling it PLA vs. Arc Bio. They have enough stuff with their branded names that I can’t keep straight what the material is.

We sent out partial spools to testers worldwide but the production release will be on standard 1kg spools loaded to 1kg. We are working to provide users a unique PLA that meets our higher strength standards. As many more users print with PLA, we intentionally want everyone to be able to easily compare our features as well as price. The release title is currently “PLAdium” and is scheduled for bulk release very soon. A big thank you goes out to @Colin_Bell and all of those that give their time and energy to provide real world feedback “before” an official release!
