Timberfill® (Wood Composite) | Fillamentum
Timberfill® feels, smells, and looks genuinely like wood. This filament is relatively easy to print although be sure to use a bigger nozzle diameter when printing with this (at least 0.5mm, ideally bigger). Compared to standard wood materials it is NOT abrasive. It is made from a mixture of biopolymers filled with 15% natural fibers isolated from spruce. The material exhibits similar mechanical features as PLA. Like PLA, it can be biodegraded using an industrial composter. Please note that the color tone can slightly vary due to the natural origin of the material.

How to store filaments
Humidity and UV light can decrease the filament quality and weaken its mechanical properties. We strongly recommend storing open filaments in a dry and dark place. You can find a complete guide on how to properly store your filament here
Where to throw print fails and supports?
We kindly ask our customers to cope with plastic waste responsibly. Failed prints, support material, rafts, or brims should be liquidated according to the local guidelines. Paradoxically, in most cases, it is better to throw this waste in the regular trash can, as most of the material waste created in 3D printing is not identified, which causes more problems than benefits in the waste sorting facilities.
Timberfill® (Wood Composite) | Fillamentum
Timberfill® feels, smells, and looks genuinely like wood. This filament is relatively easy to print although be sure to use a bigger nozzle diameter when printing with this (at least 0.5mm, ideally bigger). Compared to standard wood materials it is NOT abrasive. It is made from a mixture of biopolymers filled with 15% natural fibers isolated from spruce. The material exhibits similar mechanical features as PLA. Like PLA, it can be biodegraded using an industrial composter. Please note that the color tone can slightly vary due to the natural origin of the material.
Features:
- Can be easily post-processed using standard sandpaper
- Possible to stain after printing
- Very low tendency to warp or shrink
- Can be printed well at high speeds (actually it's recommended as the natural fibers may start to degrade/burn at slower speeds which could lead to nozzle jam)
- Rigid, not easily bendable (mechanically feels like PLA)
- Low brittleness in bulk object
- Safe to use in electrical and electronic equipment
General information about Wood :
Wood filaments look and feel like wood but print on any ordinary FDM printer. They are PLA-based, so they suit beginners as well as designers who want natural-looking decorations, models and gifts. We stock three different approaches in our warehouse in Senec, Slovakia: Fillamentum Timberfill® with real spruce fibres, Filament-PM WoodJet with bamboo powder and Polymaker PolyWood™, a foamed PLA without any wood.
Properties
- Timberfill® – biopolymers filled with 15 % natural spruce fibres; feels, smells and looks like wood, can be sanded and stained; industrially compostable; the colour tone varies slightly because of its natural origin.
- WoodJet – PLA+ with 20 % fine bamboo powder; not abrasive and printable with a brass nozzle.
- PolyWood™ – 100 % PLA with a foamed structure and a density of only 0.8 g/cm³; it looks like wood, and with no wood powder inside there is no risk of clogging.
- All three behave mechanically much like PLA and warp very little.
Print settings
- Nozzle: PolyWood™ about 200 °C, WoodJet about 210 °C; Timberfill® prints at a lower temperature – see its product page.
- Bed 55–60 °C, strong part cooling, no enclosure needed.
- Timberfill®: use a nozzle of at least 0.5 mm and print fast – at slow speeds the natural fibres may start to burn and jam the nozzle.
- Drying: 50–55 °C for 2–6 hours depending on the product.
Typical uses
Decorations, figurines, architectural models, boxes, gifts and props where a natural wooden look matters more than strength or heat resistance.
Pros and cons
- Pros: natural look, PLA-like printability, post-processing by sanding or staining (Timberfill®).
- Cons: heat resistance similar to PLA; fibre-filled filaments need larger nozzles; colour can vary between batches.
Frequently asked questions
Do wood filaments need a hardened nozzle?
Not the ones we stock: according to their manufacturers, Timberfill®, WoodJet and PolyWood™ are not abrasive. For Timberfill® use a nozzle of 0.5 mm or more.
Which wood filament is best for beginners?
PolyWood™ is the safest choice, because it contains no particles that could clog the nozzle and prints like regular PLA.

Who is Fillamentum for?
Choose PLA Extrafill when colour and surface quality matter – for models, prototypes and decorations. CPE HG100 is a tougher, easy-to-print alternative to PETG for functional parts. The Flexfill range covers flexible parts from soft to semi-rigid, and the nylon grades suit wear-resistant mechanical parts; remember to dry nylon before printing.
Frequently asked questions
Where is Fillamentum made?
Fillamentum is a Czech brand. Its filaments are exported to more than 62 countries around the world.
What is CPE HG100?
CPE is a copolyester related to PETG. It was developed for users who want more toughness than PETG while keeping easy printing with no warping.
Which Flexfill should I choose?
The number in the name is the Shore hardness: the lower the number, the softer and more elastic the part. Flexible filaments print best slowly, ideally with a direct-drive extruder.
