How We Work
The PrintCycle Process
01
Material Collection
PrintCycle begins with the gathering of 3D print remnants from our network, ensuring every piece of scrap gets a second life.
02
Sorting and Shredding
Next, we meticulously sort and shred the collected materials, preparing them for a new cycle of utility and value.
03
Production and Sales
Our final stage turns recycled filaments into innovative products, culminating in the sale of unique, eco-friendly items.

Our mission is aligned with industry projections, aiming to increase the recycling of 3D printed items to 40-60%.
