Gembird filament PLA silk

High gloss without effort

Unlike standard PLA filament, Gembird PLA Silk offers a silky surface effect that makes prints presentable and aesthetically striking objects.

It still retains all the advantages of classic PLA filament – ease of use, low shrinkage, and odorless printing.
The material is ideal for open-frame printers, does not require a heated bed, and prints without warping or layer cracking.

Characteristic properties of Gembird PLA Silk:

• High, silky gloss with a smooth surface effect

• Excellent layer adhesion and dimensional accuracy

• Easy to print even on standard printers

• Odorless and non-toxic material

• Environmentally friendly – biodegradable polymer

• Low shrinkage, no warping of prints

• Fine texture and sharp layer details

Projects designed to impress with their appearance

Gembird PLA Silk is ideal for printing trophies, jewelry, figurines, signs, packaging, company logos, designer accessories, or decorative items. Thanks to their sheen, the resulting prints appear varnished, pearlescent, or metallic, all without any post-processing.
At the same time, the material retains a stable structure and strength, so the prints are not brittle and hold their shape well.

Recommended print parameters:

• Nozzle temperature: 200–220 °C

• Bed temperature: 40–60 °C (optional)

• Print speed: 40–70 mm/s

Printing with PLA Silk Gembird is smooth and clean – the filament does not stick to the nozzle, does not sputter, and does not create streaks, making it ideal even for long prints with large surfaces.

High-quality workmanship and a wide range of colors

Each spool of Gembird PLA Silk is precisely wound, vacuum-sealed, and protected with desiccant, ensuring consistent quality and an even material flow throughout the entire printing process.
The filaments are available in attractive color variants, such as gold, silver, copper, bronze, pearlescent, or black with a metallic sheen, which highlight the shapes and details of every model.
