The Standard Print Co.
ECO+ Strategy



Our pledge to combat 3D printed plastic pollution.


Better Design

We are driving eco-innovation around materials, products and new ways of using them through better designed products.

Better Materials

Reusable spools available across our entire material range. No harmful plasticisers. No shortcuts in our production processes.


Better Recycling

We're pairing with partners and intercepting 3D printed plastic before it ends up in the ocean.

3D Printer Filament Dry-box Standard Print Co.

Less Waste By Design

With our 3D printable filament dry box, you’ll be able to extend the shelf life of your filament by decreasing its moisture absorption rate and by minimising filament wastage due to spoilage. Best of all, out filament dry-boxes are designed to fit out ECO spools and are completely free to download.

Smarter Packaging

By offering all filaments in a refill format, we’re able to offer a slimmed-down product, 25% lighter than a traditional spool while still packing the same amount of filament. This saves on raw materials, improves shipping efficiency , decreases the price for the consumer and means less waste at end of life. 

No single use 3D Filament Spools

Less Single Use Plastic

Standard Print Co. ECO + Refill filaments don’t come packaged with single use plastic spools. All ECO Spools are reusable and can be refilled with any material refill across our entire product range.

 

The truth is that a reusable filament spool alone will not save the planet.


However, we challenged ourselves to find more sustainable solutions.


Consider this a commitment.


A commitment for continuous innovation in the field of sustainability.

We’re working with local recycling partners to prevent plastic entering our oceans and by recycling and upcycling 3D printed waste and transforming it into other useful products.

We’re turning the problem into a solution. The pollution into product.

If your organisation is interested in-repurposing 3D printed waste, get in touch with us below.

UPDATE:

  1. BETA testing is underway with community members who have signed up below.

  2. Register your interest using the buttons below, as spots are limited.

  3. Waste collection is currently limited to waste generated from STANDARD PRINT CO. material only.

  4. For waste from other brands, please check our Recycling Collection Points page for nearby collection hubs.

  5. Individuals or businesses printing over 30kg per month or generating over 10kg of waste per month will be prioritised to support our BETA testing phase.
