Let’s bring your 3D printed vision to life with unparalleled quality, color accuracy, and craftsmanship.

Color

Color development for painting, deep dyeing, and color 3D printing in prototypes and low-volume production involves creating and matching specific colors for each product. These colors, tones, and textures are carefully chosen to convey volume, atmosphere, movement, and light, enhancing the product’s visual impact.

Materials

Our material selection is driven by functionality, feel, haptics, environmental adaptability, ergonomics, and sustainability, while meeting stringent mechanical requirements. We focus heavily on exploring and testing new materials, continually pushing the boundaries of innovation and sustainability in 3D printing. This commitment ensures our materials meet both performance and environmental goals, aligning with our mission to deliver high-quality, responsible products.

Finishes

we use a wide range of finishing techniques tailored to the intended use of each 3D printed part. Our finishes include vapor smoothing, surface polishing, texturing, and various hand-applied techniques. Skilled craftsmanship is key: our artisans use hand painting, airbrushing, HVLP automotive coatings, vacuum metalizing, polyurethane soft-touch paint, and hydro dipping, among others. Each finish is carefully chosen and expertly applied to bring out the product's character, ensuring a striking visual and tactile experience.
