 History / Background

• Over 50 years of experience in the extrusion of a broad range of engineering

and high performance plastics, have led to high precision filaments and enable
us to produce special filaments.

• Ensinger produces filaments made from high temperature plastics and offers
application advice to all issues around additive manufacturing of high
performance plastics. Where high temperature plastics are required in FFF
processes, Ensinger filaments are very well suited.

• There are stock materials available as well as the option to develop customized
filaments.
