ARNITE® AM2001 GF (G) rPET Direct printing of applications lowers cost by reducing product development time. Plus 3D printing allows design flexibility, which can help reduce material cost. By only using what is needed, additive manufacturing offers the possibility to produce more sustainably. Arnite® AM2001 (G) rPET is a glass- fiber filled recycled PET that has been optimized for 3D pellet printing. This technology, also known as fused granulate fabrication (FGF), allows for fast and economically viable additive manufacturing of large-size parts. Made from post-consumer PET waste, this material combines strong mechanical properties with a significantly lower carbon footprint than virgin material. These mechanical properties and broad processing window makes it ideally suited for structural applications across a variety of applications, such as foot bridges, tiles for cyclist or pedestrian tunnels, architectural applications like façade cladding or partition walls, in- and outdoor furniture, tooling or packaging crates. The introduction of this high-performing material for 3D pellet printing is an • Recycled PET, made from post-consumer waste • Glass-fiber filled pellets for fused granulate fabrication/pellet printing High structural performance. Lower carbon footprint. important step in creating circular supply chains. With PET packaging accounting for more than 50% of total plastic waste, extending its lifetime by re-using it as feedstock offers a broadly available alternative to virgin raw materials – without the need to compromise on performance or total cost of ownership! Key Benefits • Glass filled formula with improved mechanical properties • Reduced product environmental footprint • UV stabilized for outdoor use • Broad print/processing window for consistent printing and higher yield • Easy post-treatment/processing • Extended product lifetime vs. traditional manufacturing Applications • Structural applications • Infrastructure • Foot bridges • Cyclist or pedestrian tunnels • Architecture • Cladding, partition walls • In- and outdoor furniture • Floor tiles • Small, recreational boats • Packaging crates and pallets • Tooling ARNITE® AM2001 GF (G) rPET Arnite® AM2001 GF (G) rPET*, a glass-fiber filled recycled PET (rPET) for pellet 3D printing, offers manufacturers structural performance with a lower carbon footprint than virgin material. Manufacturers can now make their supply chain more circular without the need to compro-mise on performance. Design: Michiel van der Kley.
