As 3D printing lands in more homes across South Africa, we are thrilled to see local filaments spring to the market with affordability and quality in mind. We’ve put many local suppliers to the test, but it’s always a joy when one surprises us. 3D Fusion is our newest local brand of locally made 3D filaments! This gem of a brand has produced some of the best affordable local PLA and PETG filament. We are thrilled to add their range of vibrant colours, smooth print quality, and meticulous spooling, like their White 3D Fusion PETG Filament.
Compared to most 3D filament manufacturers, 3D Fusion has placed a core focus on making a great quality filament for everyday use that’s affordable to everyone in the local South African market. The 3D Fusion PETG range opens a vibrant spectrum of colours and is meticulously designed for strength and flexibility. Printing with these filaments felt as easy as swirling cream on pie. These are some key ingredients that, in our experience, do wonders toward making a material a comfortable “Everyday Filament”, and when coupled with a fantastically wide range of colours to choose from, can easily make this filament a firm favourite amongst 3D Makers of all kinds.
If you’re looking for a material that you can use to print items to withstand typical everyday forces, PETG filament is a great option. This tougher material is similar to ABS but easier to print and can certainly take a light to moderate knock without cracking or deforming. This makes it ideal for items like handguards on motocross bikes, scratch plates for sleek enclosures, handles for cupboards and storage compartments, and pretty much any other applications that may be exposed to the odd bump, knock, scrape or similar type of harsh force. These characteristics, coupled with the fact that many of these spools feature a vibrant and enjoyable colour, makes 3D Fusion PETG a great all-round material for pretty much anything you want to print.
Of course, as with any other filament brand, we encourage you to test out 3D Fusion PETG for yourself, and if you enjoy the colours, print quality and easy printing style of it, then take the next leap and test out other materials from our new 3D Fusion filament range.

3D Printing with the durable and slightly flexible PETG polymer is quite a unique experience, as it offers very similar characteristics to ABS, but uses very similar printing specifications to PLA. This is why many 3D Makers argue that PETG is the perfect balance between ABS and PLA polymers, offering high strength but also being relatively easy to print with compared to some of the filaments and polymers with stricter parameters.
However, if you really want to get the most out of your PETG prints, and enjoy both durable and aesthetically awesome-looking results, we’ve collected following insights, which we feel are some of the most important factors, and which we feel are the most important factors to experiment with when “dialling in” your 3D Printer:
Although this section of 3D Printing Tips is longer than usual, we feel that these are all equally important for 3D Makers who really want to get maximum strength or detail quality from this fantastic polymer. However, this list isn’t at all exhaustive, and we encourage you to go out and find even more great insights, and be brave in your experimentation. You may even reveal a completely new secret that nobody knew about, and because 3D Printing is still a relatively new hobby for most people, your findings could certainly earn you some internet points if shared with the right communities.
If you’re still eager to learn more about the intricacies of 3D Printing with PETG, we’ve taken the time to collect together some of our favourite resources, guides, tutorials and discussions, and we feel that each of these offer some unique insights that can help you achieve great success with this slightly tricky but very awesome 3D Filament. Just remember, however, that each of the following resources will have their own unique take on printing PETG, and may have used different brands or colours in their tests. As such, they may understandably differ from our tips, which we created using eSUN PETG Filament, but can still offer great assistance if you’re running into troubles, or are just looking for further information over and above what we’ve provided. As such, we hope that you enjoy these as much as we do, and can gather some good tips to help you get your 3D Printer dialled in and printing strong, beautiful or otherwise impressive PETG prints:
