Filament U-ASA
Material resistant to external factors
Filament U-ASA can be used to make elements exposed to weather conditions, such as road signs, outdoor signs, or automotive parts. Thanks to the high gloss of the material, you can obtain products with an exceptionally aesthetic appearance. The mechanical properties are very similar to ABS, but replacing butadiene with rubber acrylic allows for much better resistance to ultraviolet radiation.
