PLA (Polylactic Acid) is a highly economical option for prototyping and testing. Its affordability and ease of use make it ideal for creating initial models, testing design fit and form, and verifying dimensions without incurring the cost of more advanced materials. Many clients start with PLA for early-stage testing, then move to more durable or specialized materials once the design is finalized.
