[*Note]
- Filaments with carbon fiber, glass fiber, metal, or other inorganic particles are prone to clog a 0.2 mm nozzle.
- For filaments containing carbon fiber or glass fiber, it is highly recommended to use a hardened steel 0.6 mm nozzle to minimize the risk of clogging and abrasion.
- Bambu PLA-CF and Bambu PETG-CF have been extensively tested and proven to have a low risk of clogging when printed with a hardened steel 0.4 mm nozzle, while also achieving higher print quality.

Safety Information for 3D Printed Items in PLA
Product Material These items are 3D printed using Polylactic Acid (PLA) – a
biodegradable thermoplastic made from renewable resources such as corn starch.
Important Safety Warnings
NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN
YOUNGER THAN 5 YEARS
Small parts may pose a choking hazard. Keep out of reach of young children.
Do not use for food or beverage contact. The layered structure of 3D prints can
harbour bacteria.
Usage & Care
Do not expose to temperatures above 60°C (140°F) – PLA may soften or
deform.
Some designs may have sharp edges or points.
Handle with care. Keep away from open flames or high heat sources.
• Intended for decorative, collector, and general non-food use only.
• Clean gently with mild soap and lukewarm water if needed. Avoid harsh chemicals or
dishwashers.
• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to maintain color and shape.
Disposal & Recycling
PLA is recyclable and industrially compostable. Please check your
local recycling facilities and follow local regulations for proper disposal.
Manufacturer Declaration FilamentHub LTD declares that these 3D printed PLA items
comply with the EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) and applicable health &
safety requirements.
The CE marking indicates conformity with relevant EU directives.
