2018 Recap

Another year has passed and we’re gearing up for a (let’s be honest) well-deserved holiday break. Before we head home, let’s look back at the past year with a short recap.

5 years of colorFabb

We started the year with our fifth anniversary, which seems so long ago already. Take a trip down Memory Lane and read our blogs about our birthday here.

New material releases

No new year without new materials. And we released quite a bit. From aesthetical to functional, we’ve added quite a bit to our portfolio.

nGen_LUX

Our most luxurious filament so far. A unique development based on our best-selling nGen. Make your prints stand out! Full release notes **here**.

ngen Transparent

Adding no less than six amazing transparent colors to our nGen line-up! Read more **here**.

PLA Semi-Matte Black and White

Our first semi-matte filament (black) was released in March and an instant hit. Check out the **original blog**.

… followed in December with Semi-Matte White (after popular demand). More **here**.

Color on Demand

If one development defined the year here at colorFabb, it was Color on Demand. Custom color design has already allowed hundreds of customers to print with the color they actually need.

Custom color filaments, made to order. We offer the largest portfolio of PLA colors in the world. **Learn more about our unique service**.

Pen design by Batch.Works. Original post.

PA Neat

Ultimaker Market Place

And more…

Of course there was much more news in the past year.

We started working with Ninjatek who is our new distributor in North America and we are theirs in Europe
We were nominated for the Lodewijk van der Grintenprijs (but sadly did not win)
We saw some great use of Stacker 3D printers at companies like Mifa and Optima
We visited Tinkertoys and learned why they choose colorFabb PLA/PHA as their go-to filament
We learned about the awesome Project Unicorn and their use of our filaments
We did not start drone deliveries (and it was quite surprising how many people thought we would).
