eSUN Wraps Up a Successful Trip to Formnext 2024: Multi-Scenario Material Solutions Shine Bright!

On November 22, the Formnext 2024 exhibition successfully concluded! This year’s event achieved new breakthroughs in both scale and attendance. As 3D printing technology penetrates more industries, the demand for materials is diversifying and becoming increasingly specialized.

01 PLA+ Dominates the Consumer Market: What’s the Next Big Hit?

In eSUN’s consumer-grade 3D printing material lineup, PLA+ and PLA have always held a pivotal position.At this Formnext exhibition, eSUN introduced key new products like PET and PLA-Basic.PET boasts excellent printability and outstanding recyclability, attracting detailed inquiries from many visitors during the exhibition.PLA-Basic focuses on cost-effectiveness, offering users a better experience at a lower price.

In the aesthetic material category, the playful PLA-UV color changing filament stood out, with its fun features winning widespread acclaim from attendees. It is expected to offer new creative possibilities for 3D printing makers once launched.

02 Industrial Materials Gain Traction as New Productivity Solutions

High strength, flame retardance, anti-static properties, and high-temperature resistance—depending on the application, the market demands varied performance characteristics for industrial-grade 3D printing materials.Since early 2024, eSUN has further enriched and optimized its range of industrial-grade materials, offering numerous options to industry clients at this exhibition.

1.Enhanced Carbon Fiber Material Lineup

Carbon fiber materials are widely applicable to machine parts, fixtures, engineering components, and electronics-related accessories.To date, eSUN has launched PLA-CF, ABS-CF, PETG-CF, PA-CF, PA12-CF, and PA12+CF, allowing users to select materials based on their specific application needs.

2.Positive Feedback on New Products: ASA, TPU-LW, and PETG-ESD

ASA offers excellent weather resistance for outdoor applications; lightweight TPU, a newly introduced flexible foamed material, is ideal for wearable devices, cosplay props, and model aircraft or ships. PETG-ESD is suitable for electronic components, mechanical parts, and various industrial scenarios.These three materials, each with unique features, cater to different niche applications and reflect eSUN’s commitment to advancing professional 3D printing applications through material innovation.

03 Commitment to Open Innovation for Mutual Success with Customers

During this exhibition, eSUN also hosted its third European Distributor Conference and another offline fan meetup. Face-to-face interactions deepened mutual understanding and facilitated efficient communication, laying a solid foundation for future development.

“Achieving win-win with customers, sharing glory with employees, coexisting with society, and harmonizing with the environment” is eSUN’s core value!We will always welcome every genuine collaboration with an open attitude while upholding innovation. With high-quality products and services, we aim to repay every bit of love and support, achieving a win-win outcome between our brand and users.

The four-day exhibition has come to an end, leaving behind many wonderful and cherished moments.

Thanks to its excellent printability and outstanding eco-friendliness, PLA is playing an increasingly important role in the ongoing 3D printing revolution. eSUN is honored to have pioneered the global trend of PLA 3D printing and to have led the formulation of the international standard for PLA 3D printing filaments—ISO 5425:2023, “Specifications for use of poly(lactic acid) based filament in additive manufacturing applications.” In the future, eSUN will continue to focus on innovation and breakthroughs in 3D printing materials to meet diverse user needs, deliver better products and services, and drive industry development and progress.
