CPE is a versatile and strong 3D print filament
CPE is co-polyester, an engineerging polymer with excellent printing properties
The ease of printing is great and CPE has a lot of detail in het prints. Further more CPE is durable, recyclable and food save.

CPE (co-polyester) HG100 Gloss excels in ease of processing and is good for application with low crystallisation rate, it is durable and human-friendly material, which can be recycled. Another advantages are: less shrinkage than ABS, lower water absorption than Nylon, high impact, heat and chemical resistance or dimensional stability.
Diameter 1.75 / 2.85 mm
Weight 750 grams
Working Temperature 255 - 260°C
Heated bed 80 - 100°C
CPE is co-polyester, an enhanced PETG. CPE differs form PETG by:
- higher hardness
- high impact strength (no break)
- high tensile strength
- high thermal resistance
- high ductility
- contain of biobased monomer, can be recycled, FDA certification
- BPA free (Bisphenol A)
- printing same easy as PLA
- less odour that ABS
- less shrinkage than ABS
- good layer adhesion, also to other materials and composites (wood)
- great transparency in thin layer
- great chemical resistance
CPE meets the same safety standards (FDA certification and BPA free) as PETG. And if it is also recyclable like PETG and offers many more benefits than PETG, it is advisable to opt for CPE instead of PETG.
* CPE is very sensitive to moisture absorption. Always store CPE in a resealable bag in a dry environment. When stringing, CPE must be dried in the oven for 3-4 hours at 60 ° C
