Eastablished in 2003 and located in Shanghai,

aK2 is a high-tech entreprise specializing in

researching, developing and producing Polymer

material such as self adhesive films for the digital

printing industry.

Since 2010, K2 EuropE has began sales and

marketing activities in the digital printing, sign and

visual communication segments. With the emerging

market of the 3D Printing, K2 EuropE is naturally

expending with a range of PLA, ABS, PVA, Conductive,

HIPS. With the exclusive formulas the K2 Filaments

are strictly round shape with laser quality control,

accurate diameter, high teenacity, uniform color shade

stable melting point.

Besides, “Best quality, Affordable price” is K2’s long

term insistent policy. Just because of this, K2’s filament

3D is becoming well recognized in the market.

K2 EuropE successfully established the stable

relationships with many famous 3d printer

manufacturers and dealers.

Welcome to cooperate with K2.

At K2 EUROPE we only sell the best quality 3D

printer filaments and supplies available to

our customers. Quality, consistency and

innovation are the pillars of our business.

We will only offer materials to our

customers once they have been

tested thoroughly and meet our

strict quality standards.

qUalIty standaRdWe at K2 EUROPE continuously strive to provide our

customers with the best quality filaments available and

deliver excellent customer service. Next to this we are

continuously looking for the newest and most innovative

filaments available for desktop 3D printing.

We must always strive for the best quality possible. That is

why we only sell filament, which is extruded with extrusion

lines which are solely developed and set up for the extrusion

of 3D printer filament. This way all important parameters for

extruding 3D printer filament can stabilised on an on-going

basis, resulting in an extremely high and reliable quality

standard with respect to our filament’s colours, printing

quality and tolerances in diameter and roundness.

Although our filaments are already of

outstanding quality, we will never stop

looking for opportunities to improve

our products and service. Next to our

continuous journey to keep improving

quality, we are also continuously looking

to extend our product offering by adding

new materials and colours.

We value our customer’s opinion greatly, because your

feedback enables us to keep improving our products.

Therefore we are always keen to receive your feedback on

the quality of our filaments, our customer service, and our

product offering, such as our materials, quantities, colours

and colour-effects. Please do let us know if you would like us

to add other materials, colours, or “special-effect” filaments

to our shop. We will definitely look into your enquiry and

explore the possibilities. Your enquiry won’t go unnoticed!

At K2 EUROPE we offer a wide variety of

ABS, PLA and “Specialty” filaments. All

our ABS, PLA and Specialty filaments

are extruded with the latest technologies

available, ensuring very tight tolerances

with respect to the filament’s diameter

and roundness laser controlled.

Within our Premium series we also offer ABS filaments.

Our Premium ABS is available in 1.75mm and 3mm

diameter and is perfectly suitable for all FFF/FDM

technology based desktop 3D printers. We have several

colours of ABS available in our Premium ABS series. All

our Premium ABS filaments come in opaque colours.

Designed for 3D Printing purposes where

excellent surface bonding, reduced

water-absorption, tear-resistance and

transparency are joined into a 1.75mm

and 3mm 3D printer filament. Taulman

645 has remarkable characteristics

when it comes to strength (St: 16,533 psi

/114MPa), surface bonding, and durability

(exp. elongation at break = 120%).

We currently offer Premium PLA. Our Premium PLA is

available in 1.75mm and 3mm diameter and are perfectly

suitable for all FFF/FDM technology based desktop

3D printers. Our coloured Premium PLA is in general

slightly transparent. Another difference between our

Premium PLA and EcoPLA is the extrusion diameter of

the filament.

Designed for 3D Printing applications where excellent

surface bonding, reduced water absorption, tear

resistance and dye absorption are combined in an easy-

to-print line. HPS Prints as a bright natural to white with

a translucent surface. It’s possible to add colour with

most common clothing dyes.

You are able to print objects that look

and smell like wood. Wood PREMIUM

3D filament is a mixture of 40% recycled

wood with a binding polymer. This wood/

polymer composite allows the filament

to be printed just like thermoplastic

filaments – such as ABS and PLA –

but gives your creation a wooden-like

appearance.

t-Cristal®

Is a composite of 35% recycled wood with a binding polymer. This wood/

polymer composite allows the filament to be melted and extruded just

like thermoplastic filaments, such as ABS & PLA, but gives your creation

a wooden appearance. After printing, your object will look and smell like

wood and it can also be handled like wood. You can cut, grind and paint

your creations similar as you can do with wooden objects. The color can be

changed on the fly by setting the temperature of your printer’s hot end to

230° C for a light color, and 260° C for a darker color.

Is a special thermopolymer which allows the user to obtain materials similar

to rubber. With this material, you can create objects that will appear in rubber

itself, and according to the type of rubber, the user can obtain different

levels of softness and elongation. The tear resistance characteristics of the

material are excellent and resistance to tearing is high.

It is an excellent choice for a huge variety of items including small key

rings, resistant covers for smart phones, toy tires, arm bands or ballers,

rubber shoes prototype, seals for liquids or any application that requires the

absorption of impacts.

This new and unique filament has some very interesting characteristics with

regars to clearness and strength. It is made from the highest optical quality

PETG material. Unlike other polymers, some PETG, including T-CRISTAL

are not considered “transparent”. Instead, it belongs to a group of polymers

that are considered “colorless” and or “colorless with a percentage of

reflectivity”. T-CRISTAL is also considered “clear” and “optically correct”.
