Bambu Lab PETG filament
Tougher than PLA and more resistant to water, UV and heat: ideal for functional parts and outdoor prints. Thanks to the RFID chip, your AMS recognises the colour and print settings automatically. You can see the stock for every colour, and you only order what’s actually on the shelf.

Spool or refill?
Two ways to buy PETG
Filament on a spool
Ready to print. Ideal for your first roll of a colour.
Refill (without spool)
Less waste: you clip the refill onto a reusable Bambu Lab spool. Available for PETG Basic and PETG Translucent.

How to get the most out of your PETG
Dry it first
PETG absorbs moisture from the air. Dry it before use, for example for 8 hours at 70 °C, and store it airtight below 20% humidity.
The right build plate
Print PETG on the Textured PEI, Smooth PEI or Engineering Plate, not on the Cool Plate. PETG can stick too well to a smooth plate: a little glue makes your print easy to remove.
The right nozzle
You can print PETG Basic, PETG HF and PETG Translucent with any nozzle. PETG-CF needs a hardened steel nozzle, and a 0.2 mm nozzle won’t work.
Ready for outdoor use
PETG is more resistant to water, UV and heat than PLA. Will your print sit in full sun all year round? Then also have a look at ASA.

Frequently asked questions
PETG or PLA: which should I choose?
PLA is the easiest to print and ideal for decoration and prototypes. Choose PETG for parts that need to be tough, live outdoors or get a bit warmer, such as holders, brackets and bathroom accessories.
PETG Basic or PETG HF?
PETG Basic is our standard choice: tough, reliable and also available as a refill. PETG HF is made for faster printing, with a smooth, matte finish. We sell PETG HF while stocks last.
Does PETG work in the AMS?
Yes. PETG Basic, PETG HF and PETG Translucent work in the AMS and the AMS lite. PETG-CF works in the AMS, but Bambu Lab advises against using it in the AMS lite.
Do I need an enclosed printer?
No, you can also print PETG on an open printer such as the A1. Bambu Lab does recommend an enclosed printer for the best layer adhesion.
Can I order a colour that is out of stock?
No, you can only order what is actually in stock. Each product page shows how many units of each colour are available. If a colour is temporarily unavailable, ask to be notified on the product page or get in touch with us.
How fast is delivery?
In-stock items are usually delivered within 1 to 3 working days in Belgium. Collection in Aalst is also possible.
