Is there a difference between Panchroma™ Matte PLA and PolyTerra™ PLA?
No! This is the same great material - just under a new product family name.
Is Panchroma™ Matte more abrasive than basic gloss PLA?
Yes, it Panchroma™ Matte is slightly more abrasive - though not enough to justify using a hardened nozzle. If you are printing a lot of Panchroma™ Matte, it may be worth upgrading to a hardened nozzle for longevity.
Is Panchroma™ Matte PLA biodegradable?
The short answer is no in a way that it would not degrade when throwing it on the side of the road. Panchroma™ Matte PLA requires specific conditions to degrade which can be achieved in industrial composting facilities.
We developed a formula which can degrade faster than regular PLA while maintaining excellent printability which allows a step forward towards improving the end of life of our PLA in our industry.
Compostability report and more detail information here.
Is this material food safe?
Unfortunately we do not have any data whether this material is food safe. As of now, no 3D printing material on the market is FDA food safe compliant. This is because in order to be certified as food safe, the actual object needs to be certified and not the base material. The shape, bed used, environment the object was made, and much more goes into getting a food safety certificate. As of now there is no real certification that the FDA offers for 3D printing.
Is this material AMS compatible?
Yes! All Panchroma™ spools now have hardened edges that roll great in the AMS
Do you sell refills?
Yes! You can now grab select Panchroma™ PLA Refill options HERE
Is this material recyclable?
Unfortunately there is no great answer for recycling PLA at this time. Our cardboard spools are biodegradable but there is no great way to recycle PLA at this time.
What is Panchroma™?
Panchroma™ is a new family of engineered polymer compounds containing PLA. The formulations are fine tuned for each color/surface finish to offer the best aesthetic quality and printability. They can be reliably printed on any FFF/FDM 3D printer under typical PLA settings.
All Panchroma™ products are PLA except for those listed under "experimental".
Can I mix and match effects into a single HueForge print?
This material will mix and match great with all other Panchroma™ effects, except those listed under "experimental".
Are Polymaker spools compatible with the AnyCubic ACE?
Some users have experienced compatibility issues; results may vary.
Printing Requirements
None! This will print great on any stock 3D printer!
You will just want to print slower on stock, older style printers.
Panchroma™ Matte is slightly more abrasive than standard gloss PLA - so if printing a lot of it - it may be worth upgrading to a hardened nozzle.
Customers praised this matte PLA for "printing beautifully" with excellent color variety and smooth texture. The matte finish "hides layer lines" effectively. Most reported flawless consistency and reliable results. However, one customer experienced spool compatibility issues with multi-filament dispensers, and another had adhesion problems with ash grey.

une couleur de mauvaise qualité
La couleur est impossible a utiliser en multi couleur, elle colonise les autres couleurs, c'est très laid. Je suis déçu de mon achat.
Bonjour ! Il semble que notre équipe ait déjà échangé avec vous par e-mail et vous ait fourni une pièce de rechange ; toutefois, l'utilisation du noir ne pose pas de problème en soi. Il vous suffit d'augmenter les valeurs de purge lors des impressions multicolores, en particulier lorsque vous passez d'une couleur foncée à une couleur claire. Cela s'applique systématiquement lorsque vous passez du noir au blanc avec une buse unique : les valeurs de purge doivent être nettement plus élevées pour éviter que cet effet ne soit visible sur les zones claires de votre impression.
Nous vous conseillons donc simplement d'augmenter la valeur de purge pour la transition du noir vers le blanc, et ce problème devrait être résolu !

Polymaker's Matte PLA filament
I've had an excellent experience with Polymaker's Matte PLA filament. The matte finish gives prints a premium, professional appearance that hides layer lines much better than standard glossy PLA. This makes finished models look cleaner and more refined, especially for display pieces, prototypes, and decorative prints.
Print quality has been consistently impressive. The filament feeds smoothly, maintains tight dimensional accuracy, and produces sharp details with minimal stringing when properly tuned. Bed adhesion is reliable, and I haven't encountered any significant issues with warping or clogging. Overall, Polymaker Matte PLA is one of the best matte filaments available. It combines excellent printability, attractive surface quality, and reliable performance at a reasonable price. I highly recommend it for makers who want professional-looking prints with minimal post-processing.

Went Back For More (again)
Liked it before, then got a refill. That wasn't enough, so I went to the website and got a couple more refills. So far so good, but the next refill will be coming soon. Forest Green is nice and the filament is nice to work with.
