What is PLA?
PLA, or Polylactic Acid, is a bioplastic made from natural and renewable resources such as corn, sugarcane, and cassava. Unlike traditional plastics, which often take hundreds of years to degrade, PLA is biodegradable under industrial composting conditions. This makes PLA one of the most environmentally friendly options for 3D printing technology.
Why choose PLA?
PLA offers a unique combination of durability and quality, making it ideal for both our products and our customers:
- Made from renewable resources: PLA is made from natural crops like corn and sugarcane, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to petroleum-based plastics.
- Biodegradable: Under the right conditions, PLA can be completely broken down, meaning it does not contribute to the growing mountain of plastic waste.
- Energy-efficient: PLA production requires less energy and emits less CO₂ than traditional plastics.
Perfect for 3D printing: PLA delivers a smooth, strong finish, essential for the quality and aesthetics of our minimalist designs.
The production process at Novox Design
At Novox Design, we combine the power of PLA with advanced 3D printing technology. Each product is printed layer by layer, ensuring precision, minimal waste, and a unique result. Because we only print after an order is placed, we avoid unnecessary inventory and overproduction – a conscious choice to minimize waste.
Our products, such as the minimalist phone holder and leaf-shaped coasters , are carefully designed and produced with respect for the planet. By using PLA, we deliver functional and stylish items that perfectly fit a sustainable lifestyle.
