Nanocellulose:
- Strengthens bio-based 3D printing resins and filaments, improving their mechanical properties.
- Improves the strength/ weight ratio, stiffness, and barrier performance of plastics.
- Gel-like properties allow for printing biomedical scaffolds and other composites.

As industries worldwide shift toward sustainable materials and circular production models, nanocellulose serves as a key enabler of innovation across 3D printing and plastics manufacturing.

Nanocellulose is used to strengthen ABS, PVC, PE and other plastic filaments as well as bio-based filaments such as PLA (polylactic acid) and PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate).

Direct Ink Writing (DIW) and paste-based printing
also benefit from the gel-like rheology and shear-thinning behavior of nanocellulose – which means it is suitable for extrusion-based printing with pastes, powders, or hydrogels.

This enables printing of biomedical scaffolds, tissue engineering constructs, and cosmetic molds.

Nanocellulose:
- Higher tensile strength, stiffness, and impact resistance.
- Improved moisture and gas barrier properties
- Ideal for creating thin, transparent films.
- A renewable alternative that reduces the need for synthetic fillers and stabilizers.
- Works with both water and oil-based polymers

Nanocellulose significantly enhances mechanical properties, such as strength, stiffness, and impact resistance, without adding weight.

Nanocellulose improves the mechanical and barrier properties of plastics, forming thin, transparent films with exceptional properties.

As a renewable, biodegradable, and high-performance additive or base material, Nanocellulose enables companies to meet sustainability goals without compromising functionality or performance.
