Product Description

Prusament PLA Vanilla White 1kg (NFC) is a high-quality PLA filament from Prusa Research's own production. Each spool undergoes meticulous quality control and offers exceptional diameter accuracy of ±0.02 mm, ensuring smooth material flow and reliable printing without nozzle clogging.

The Vanilla White shade is a soft, creamy white color that is perfect for design and decorative models, prototypes, and presentation parts. This filament is ideal for both beginners and advanced users who demand easy printing and professional results.

Thanks to the NFC chip integrated into the spool, compatible Original Prusa printers (e.g., MK4, MINI+, XL, and CORE series) can automatically load material information – type, color, and recommended printing parameters. This speeds up print preparation and reduces the risk of incorrect settings.

Main Advantages

• Top accuracy ±0.02 mm – stable filament diameter for trouble-free filament feeding.
• Easy printing – PLA is very simple to set up, suitable even for absolute beginners.
• Soft vanilla white color – an elegant, creamy white shade suitable for design, decorations, and prototypes.
• Integrated NFC chip – automatic spool identification on compatible Original Prusa printers.
• In-house production at Prusa Research – full control over quality and traceability of every spool.
• Low warping and good interlayer adhesion – suitable even for larger models without significant warping effect.
• No significant odor during printing – more comfortable for indoor use.

Recommended Use

Prusament PLA Vanilla White is ideal for:

• conceptual models and prototypes
• figurines, models, miniatures and cosplay accessories
• interior decorations, vases, flower pot covers (away from constant sunlight)
• promotional and presentation items, logos, signs
• educational projects and teaching models

PLA is generally not suitable for applications with higher temperature loads (e.g., on a car dashboard), nor for long-term outdoor use due to lower UV and temperature resistance.

Printing Recommendations

• Nozzle temperature: approx. 210 °C ± 10 °C
• Heatbed temperature: 40–60 °C
• Cooling: 100 % (strong part cooling)
• Print speed: up to around 200 mm/s (depending on printer and settings)
• Print surface: smooth / powder-coated PEI, glass, painter's tape or glue stick

For the best results, printing on a well-degreased print surface (isopropyl alcohol, or soapy water as per Prusa Research recommendations) is recommended.

Tips for Processing and Use

• Sanding: prefer wet sanding to prevent local melting of the material and clogging of the abrasive.
• Gluing: superglue (CA) works well; most models do not require special chemicals.
• Storage: keep the filament dry, ideally in a closed box or bag with silica gel.
• Food safety: while PLA itself can be a food-grade material, 3D prints have micro-cracks where bacteria can accumulate. For food contact, it is advisable to use a protective, food-safe coating.
