Whether your model is made from PLA or PETG, each material has specific properties that require the right care. When a model is displayed in an open space, there are three main factors to bear in mind: environment, handling and cleaning.
Although our materials are of industrial quality, they remain sensitive to extreme environmental factors.
It is tempting for customers or passers-by to briefly stroke the model or point out details.
Dust is the greatest enemy of an open-air model. Because 3D prints often have a light texture, dust easily gets ‘caught’ in them.
Do you have a project that has lost its lustre due to damage or the passage of time? Send us a photo of the model’s current condition. We will assess the damage and give you honest advice on the restoration options, so that your model can once again serve as a showcase for years to come.
Tip: Would you like to protect your model permanently against dust and handling? Then ask us about the options for a bespoke plexiglass dust cover. We can supply these on request, tailored to the dimensions of your specific model.
Do you have any questions about the best place for your new model? Please feel free to contact us. We’d be happy to advise you on the best way to keep your project looking its best for years to come.
3D evacuation plans: Why a model can save lives The human brain is programmed to think in three dimensions. In a calm environment, most people have no trouble translating a flat drawing into reality. However, as soon as panic or time pressure sets in, our capacity for abstract thinking diminishes.
In a saturated digital market, physical 3D models distinguish projects from ‘too perfect’ renders. They create tangible confidence, activate spatial insight, and stimulate dialogue in the boardroom. This makes the model an indispensable tool for the final investment decision.
Preserve the quality of your model through optimal environmental factors, proper handling, and safe cleaning. Discover how to protect specific materials such as PLA and PETG against UV radiation, heat, and dust, ensuring your investment remains a showcase for years to come.
