PLA filament (1.75mm or 2.85mm) is a filament manufactured in Europe for 3D printers with FFF/FDM technology.

PLA is a biodegradable plastic obtained from natural resources from starch extracted from corn, beets and wheat. It is made with a raw material and a process that not only manages to match PLA850 in properties, but surpasses it in some aspects.
