PETG

PETG is plastic that possesses strength and durability similar to that of ABS, but that is not harmful to human health. The material is both chemical- and wear-resistant, but can also be used in outdoor and food-related settings. PETG is made with one of the most common synthetic materials – polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is modified with glycol. As a result, PETG is much tougher, stiffer, clearer, and easier to use in 3D printing than PET.
