Candour PETG Matte White 1 kg

Product Description

Candour PETG Matte White 1 kg is a premium PETG filament with a matte white surface, manufactured by the same manufacturer as Bambu Lab filaments. The material and shade of white match Bambu Lab PETG HF / PETG Basic White filament, making it ideal for users looking for an equivalent look and properties, but who do not need the original spool with NFC.

The matte surface helps hide layers and imperfections, gives prints a professional, "satin" look and reduces unwanted glare. PETG is also known for its higher toughness, water resistance, and weather resistance compared to PLA, making it suitable for functional parts and more demanding indoor and outdoor use.

Important: Candour spools do not have an NFC tag and have a different shape than original Bambu Lab spools – they cannot be used as a refill for Bambu Lab spools. However, for printing in AMS or on Bambu Lab printers, the filament is fully compatible as a standard 1kg spool.

Key Features

• Identical material and color as Bambu Lab PETG Matte White – same manufacturer, consistent pure white shade
• Matte surface – reduces glare, better masks layers and imperfections, aesthetically very clean appearance
• High toughness and impact resistance – ideal for functional, mechanically stressed parts
• Water and weather resistance – suitable for long-term use in normal outdoor environments
• Good layer adhesion – strong bonds in the Z direction, lower risk of cracking
• Lower stringing and blobs (with correct settings) – inspired by the Bambu Lab PETG formula
• Universal 1.75 mm diameter – compatible with most FDM 3D printers
• Does not contain NFC chip – behaves as a standard "third party" filament for Bambu Lab and other printers

Recommended Use

Candour PETG Matte White is particularly suitable for:

• Functional parts and mechanical components – holders, mounts, covers, jigs
• Outdoor and moisture-exposed parts – flower pots, garden accessories, cases, garage equipment
• Design and decorative objects – vases, statues, models requiring a matte, representative surface
• Parts for the household and workshop – organizers, hooks, boxes, handles, frames
• Prototypes and small series – where professional appearance and durability are important

Printing Recommendations

Parameters are based on typical values for PETG and reference settings for Bambu Lab PETG Basic/PETG HF:**

• Nozzle temperature: 240–270 °C
• Bed temperature: 65–75 °C
• Print speed: up to approx. 200–300 mm/s (depending on printer capabilities)
• Cooling: medium, according to model shape
• Print bed: PEI (smooth/textured), glass with suitable adhesive (glue, glue stick)

To reduce stringing and "blobs", we recommend:

• slightly increasing retraction compared to PLA,
• printing in a dry environment (PETG is slightly hygroscopic),
• eventually drying the filament before printing (e.g., 65 °C for several hours).

Compatibility with Bambu Lab

• Material corresponds to PETG for high-speed printing, so it is very well suited for Bambu Lab X1 / P1 / A1 and other fast FDM printers.
• In Bambu Studio, the Bambu Lab PETG profile can be used as a default and the temperatures and retraction can be finely tuned to your printer.
• The spool does not have NFC – the printer will not recognize it automatically, the material type must be set manually.
• Due to the different spool construction, it is not intended as a refill for original Bambu Lab spools.

Package Contents

• 1× spool Candour PETG Matte White, 1 kg
• Resealable bag for filament storage

Storage Tips

• Keep dry, ideally in a resealable bag or box with desiccant.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight and high temperatures for long periods.
• If the filament becomes damp, we recommend drying it in a dryer or oven suitable for plastics.

Key Features:

• Identical material and shade of white as Bambu Lab PETG Matte / PETG White from the same manufacturer
• Matte surface for a professional look and better layer hiding
• Higher toughness and durability than PLA – suitable for functional and mechanically stressed parts
• Good resistance to water and common weather influences – suitable for outdoor use
• Stable 1.75 mm diameter for a reliable feeding mechanism and high-quality printing
• Spool without NFC and with its own construction – cannot be used as a refill for Bambu Lab spools, but fully compatible for printing
• Suitable for high-speed printing on modern FDM printers (including Bambu Lab X1/P1/A1)
