3D Printing News: Fabulous PA11 DETECT Powder Available on Formlabs Fuse

Source: Fabulous

Together with the FORMLABS teams, FABULOUS has qualified the first material available for food contact markets:

The use of FORMLABS-qualified materials with Open Materials Mode (OMM) software means that the ecosystem of users and future users of the 3D printer, who work in technical & specialized fields, finally have access to materials that comply with the specific regulations and approvals of their industrial sectors.

DETECT

PA11 blue in the mass for optical detection

Polymer-metal composite for metal X-ray detection

Food contact certificates EU 10/2011 & FDA CFR 21

Certified for Formlabs Fuse1/Fuse1+.

Complies with the good manufacturing practices (GMP) of the EC Regulation 2023/06

Bio-sourced components

The biosourced material is FDA-approved and meets EU food contact regulations (EU 10/2011 – 1935/2004), making it perfect for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Fabulous believes that the material’s qualification will unlock “new opportunities for cost-effective, on-demand production.” The company is one of the first global suppliers to have a third-party material qualified for Formlabs’ SLS Open Material Platform (OMM).

“This achievement is the result of three years of collaboration with Formlabs, paving the way for further material innovations,” said Arnault Coulet, co-founder of Fabulous.

Based in Lyon, the company is dedicated to developing sustainable materials that address the evolving demands of global industrial markets. Its powders are reportedly compatible with 95% of SLS 3D printers, with a focus on creating technical materials tailored to end-user needs. So far, Fabulous has prioritized materials for the food, pharmaceutical, and drinking water industries, while also expanding into other high-value-added markets.

Although the company has collaborated with Formlabs for three years, the additive manufacturing leader only opened its SLS platform to third-party materials in October 2024. Founder and CEO Max Lobovsky stated that the decision was made to “break down barriers, welcoming innovators at every level to explore endless new possibilities and bring their ideas to life.”
