FAQ
About Our 3D Printed Products
What material are the products made from?
All of our products are made from eco-friendly PLA filament. PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a biodegradable thermoplastic derived from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane. It is one of the most commonly used materials in 3D printing thanks to its strength, ease of printing, attractive finish, and environmentally friendly properties.
Why can I see lines in my product?
Because 3D printing builds objects layer by layer, fine lines may be visible on the surface. These are not defects but a natural characteristic of the additive manufacturing process.
While we work hard at 3D Print Mania to optimise our settings for the smoothest and highest-quality finish, these subtle layer lines give each piece its own unique character.
Who designs the products you sell?
We offer a mix of:
-
Original 3D Print Mania designs, created in-house
-
Licensed designs from talented, reputable creators such as
SLTFLIX, and others (credited individually on each product page)
While the models are licensed, we carefully choose the colours, sizes, materials, and print settings to produce high-quality, durable 3D printed toys.
Product Care
Warping / Softening
PLA can soften when exposed to high heat. To keep your product in perfect condition:
-
Do not leave it in direct sunlight, especially in a hot car
-
Do not place it near heaters or radiators
-
Do not clean it in a dishwasher or expose it to hot water
Heat exposure may cause the product to warp or deform.
Breakage
Some 3D printed products—especially articulated toys—contain small or delicate joints that must be handled with care.
To avoid damage:
-
Do not drop the product
-
Avoid bending or twisting joints excessively
-
Keep articulated models away from young children, as they may break if mishandled
Although PLA is durable, it is not indestructible.
