3D Meta Filament at Everyday Home Living
3D Meta produces a wide range of 1.75mm FDM filaments on standardised 1kg spools, covering standard materials alongside a broader spread of specialty and engineering-grade options than most filament brands offer. At Everyday Home Living, the 3D Meta range makes up the largest part of our filament catalogue, with colour options extending across most material types.
Filament Types in the 3D Meta Range
ABS+ and ABS Specialty Variants
ABS+ is available in a wide colour range and suits functional parts, enclosures, and prints requiring higher impact resistance than PLA. Beyond standard ABS+, the range includes ABS-ESD (static-dissipative, for components used around sensitive electronics), Fire Retardant ABS, Glass Filled ABS for added stiffness, and ABS HS (high-speed) formulated for faster print speeds.
ASA and ASA Composites
ASA is available across a wide colour range and offers better UV and weather resistance than standard ABS, making it a common choice for outdoor parts and fittings. The range extends to Carbon Fibre ASA and Glass Filled ASA for applications needing additional stiffness.
Flexible PLA
Flexible PLA combines the easier printing characteristics of PLA with added flexibility, available across a wide colour range. It suits parts requiring some give, such as protective cases or press-fit components, without the printing complexity of a full TPU material.
HIPS
HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) is available in core colours and is commonly used as a dissolvable support material or for lightweight, impact-resistant parts.
Marble and Metal Fill PLA
Marble PLA produces a stone-like speckled finish suited to decorative and display prints. Metal Fill PLA is available in Aluminium, Bronze, and Copper finishes, giving printed parts additional weight and a metallic surface appearance.
PETG Range
PETG is one of the largest material groups in the 3D Meta range, spanning standard colours through to several specialty finishes. Carbon Fibre PETG and Glass Filled PETG add stiffness for structural parts. PETG-ESD is static-dissipative for electronics-adjacent components, and Fire Retardant PETG suits applications with flammability requirements. PETG HS is formulated for faster print speeds. Transparent PETG produces clear or tinted see-through prints, while Glitter and Galactic PETG finishes are aimed at decorative and display pieces.
Metallic PETG
Metallic PETG combines the impact resistance and durability of PETG with a metallic surface finish, available in gold, bright gold, blue, and green.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 3D Meta filament compatible with any 3D printer?
3D Meta filaments use the standard 1.75mm diameter, which is compatible with the great majority of desktop FDM printers on the market, including Bambu Lab, Creality, and other popular brands. Print settings will need to be configured manually in your printer's slicer software, as automatic profile detection is generally limited to a manufacturer's own branded filament.
What is the difference between ABS+ and ASA?
Both are engineering-grade materials with higher heat resistance than PLA. ASA has better UV and weather resistance than ABS+, making it the stronger choice for parts that will be used outdoors or exposed to sunlight. ABS+ is a solid general-purpose choice for indoor functional parts. Both typically require a heated bed and benefit from an enclosed printer to reduce warping.
What is Glass Filled or Carbon Fibre filament used for?
Glass Filled and Carbon Fibre variants add reinforcing fibres to the base material, increasing stiffness and reducing warping compared to the unfilled equivalent. They suit structural or mechanical parts where extra rigidity matters. These composite materials are generally more abrasive on the printer's nozzle, so a hardened steel nozzle is recommended for extended use.
