ReCreate 3D
Turning 3D Printer Waste into Filaments

Welcome to ReCreate 3D, we believe in a future where 3D printing waste doesn’t have to end up in landfills. Our mission is simple: to recycle MisFit 3D prints, broken spools, and other 3D print waste into high-quality filament rolls. By doing so, we close the loop on waste and enable creators to ReCreate their projects with sustainable materials..

How it works?

Collect: We gather misprinted, failed, or broken 3D prints, along with excess filament waste from our community.

Recycle: Using cutting-edge techniques, we break down this waste into reusable material and reprocess it into new filament rolls.

Resupply: The recycled filament is distributed back to the community, offering a sustainable alternative to new filaments.

Sustainability: Every year, tons of 3D print waste end up in landfills. ReCreate 3D aims to reduce this environmental impact by repurposing waste into usable filament.

Cost-Effective: Recycling filament waste helps lower the cost of 3D printing, making it more accessible and eco-friendly for hobbyists, makers, and professionals alike.

Circular Economy: By participating in ReCreate 3D, you’re contributing to a closed-loop system where waste becomes a resource.

Donate Your MisFits: Got failed prints? We’ll gladly take them! You can donate any of your 3D print waste, including misprints, broken prints, or leftover spools. Every contribution helps us reduce plastic waste and turn it into something new. Plus, for each donation, you’ll earn Donation Credit that can be redeemed towards purchasing our recycled filament rolls.

Spread the Word: Help us expand our impact by sharing our mission with fellow 3D printing enthusiasts, makerspaces, and online communities. The more people involved, the bigger the difference we can make!

Buy Recycled Filament: Ready to give your next project a sustainable edge? Our recycled filament rolls are high-quality, affordable, and environmentally friendly. And don’t forget: your donations earn you Donation Credit that you can use towards future filament purchases. It's a win for your projects and the planet!

Join Us in Shaping a Greener Future

ReCreate 3D is more than a recycling initiative; it’s a movement towards more responsible, sustainable 3D printing. Together, we can build a future where creativity doesn’t come at the cost of our planet.
