American Red: Recycled PET-G

Don't worry about the strength of recycled PETG!

I use PETG for my business and was weary of recycled PETG from a small amount of research I found saying that 100% recycled PETG is quite weak compared to virgin PETG. Some papers noted that 30% recycled was okay but 100% performed quite poorly. So I bought two rolls to see if I could use 100% recycled in my design, perhaps bulk up critical areas in my design. .. Well I was surprised to see that GreenGate3D's 100% recycled PETG was just as strong as Hatchbox and California Filament's virgin PETG (without any design changes)! I am astonished by the strength of this stuff. I'm talking +450lbs to break a 15mm and 24mm edge in a aesthetically designed part. I'm not testing bricks. I will contact the site coordinators to see if I can post a picture of my product so you can see for yourself. This filament prints better than the California Filament PETG too!! I will be switching my entire product line over to GreenGate3D recycled filament. FIVE STARS!!!

Just got my re-order

Second spool as good as the first

Worked Great for Face Shields, No Clogs

I used to it to print the prusa face shield headbands. Got about 22 headbands out of the roll. Color was a bit less saturated that you would expect. More like a salmon red.
