Print it right with Spool3D PLA 3D printer filament.  Our PLA thermoplastic filament is manufactured with tight tolerances from premium grade material.

This unique filament is infused with a phosphorescent pigment, typically strontium aluminate, which absorbs light and then releases it, creating a captivating glow in the dark. Perfect for novelty items, safety markers, artistic projects, or anything that needs a touch of magic, our Glow in the Dark PLA filament is made with the same high-quality standards you expect from Spool3D.

Like our standard PLA, our glow in the dark PLA is easy to print and offers excellent layer adhesion. It's a fantastic material for both beginners and experienced users looking to add a luminous effect to their 3D printing projects. Our Glow in the Dark PLA filament is available in a range of glowing colours, all precisely matched for consistent and reliable results.

Explore Our 1.75mm PLA Glow in the Dark Collection:

• • Glow Blue
  • Glow Green
  • Glow Yellow

Filament requires charging with light prior to glowing.  Enhanced further when charged with UV light.  Non-glowing colour is white.

Tips for Maximizing Glow:

• Layer Thickness: Thicker layers will generally result in a brighter and longer-lasting glow, as there's more glowing pigment per unit volume.
• Exposure to Light: Charge the printed object under a strong light source (UV light is ideal) for an extended period to maximize the glow effect.

Why Choose Our 1.75mm PLA Filament?

• • Glow-in-the-Dark Effect: Imbue your prints with a captivating glow that lasts after exposure to light.
  • Exceptional Printability: Our PLA is formulated for smooth extrusion, minimal warping, and excellent layer adhesion.

PLA filament is an excellent material for a beginner to start with and has the added benefit of being a bio-plastic, typically derived from corn.  Low odour and consistently round diameters make this material very easy to work with.
