ColorFabb started in what was essentially a garage, an idea and long hours of work, dedication and commitment. Founded by Ruud Rouleaux, currently CEO and owner of Helian Polymers, in the winter of 2012-2013 the extensive knowledge of the (bio) plastics industry, colorants and additives made it a logical next step for him to explore opportunities in the world of 3D printing. After rigorous testing and experimenting prior to colorFabb's inception a new grade of PLA (PLA/PHA) was developed and it became commercially available in March 2013.
Fast forward to 2023, 10 years later, colorFabb has grown into a household name in the 3D printing industry, with a large portfolio of high quality filaments, years of knowledge and praised customer service.
