Farnell stated that it will store a series of 3D printed filaments under its Multicomp Pro brand, targeting "design engineers, creators, and hobbyists.".

"With the growing interest and demand for 3D printing, we are pleased to provide our customers with a diverse range of 3D printer consumables aimed at meeting the quality standards required by engineers," added Steve Jagger Marsh, the company's product manager.
These materials are:

PLA (polylactic acid) is a plant-based polymer that is easy to print and rigid. Suitable for objects below 50 °, suitable for prototypes.
ABS, A polymer that is more resilient than PLA and can withstand higher temperatures than PLA. Applicable to finished products, but please refer to the ASA for outdoor applications.

TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane, TPE) is a flexible rubber like wear-resistant plastic (in this case, the Shore hardness is 95A) that can be used for impact absorption, soft tactile surfaces, seals, bushings, and shock absorbers.

PVA, A water-soluble material that can be used as a washing stand for printing objects printed with other materials.
PETG, Almost as easy to print as PLA, and almost as resistant to impact and heat as ABS. Used for finished products and sturdy prototypes.
PA (polyamide/nylon), semi flexible, very tough and durable, suitable for bearings, structural components, and connectors.
HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) is limonene soluble, used to support ABS and print lightweight objects.
TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is more elastic than the aforementioned TPU (Shore Hardness 83A), highly durable and fatigue resistant, with a working temperature range of -30 to 140 ° C.
ASA, It is a UV resistant alternative to ABS, with almost impact resistance and heat resistance. Suitable for outdoor applications, with a low odor when printing.
