Greenboy3D™ PETG Pellets
PETG Pellets – Cost-Saving and Perfect for Your Greenboy3D Pellet Extruder
Cut your 3D printing costs without compromising quality with Premium PETG Pellets. These high-performance pellets are specifically designed for direct 3D printing, filament production, and custom-colored prints, making them a versatile and cost-effective alternative to expensive PETG filament.
Massive Cost Savings
Did you know that traditional PETG filament costs anywhere from $15 to €30 per kilogram? If you’re printing frequently or working on large projects, this quickly adds up. By switching to PETG pellets, you can significantly lower your material expenses. PETG pellets are not only more affordable, but they also let you take control of your printing process, whether that’s directly printing or creating your own filament.
For example:
- 5kg of filament could cost $75 to €150, depending on the brand.
- With PETG pellets, you can save up to 80% on your 3D printing costs, making them ideal for makers who want to maximize their budget.
Key Features:
- Practical Packaging: The pellets come in 5kg resealable ziplock bags, keeping them dry and making access easy for every project.
- Direct 3D Printing: Ready to be used with my Greenboy3D Pellet Extruder, PETG pellets deliver reliable and consistent printing results.
- Filament Creation: If you prefer to make your own filament, these pellets are perfectly suited for producing high-quality PETG filament, saving you even more money.
- Custom Coloring: Achieve the perfect color for your project by mixing the pellets with colorants or coloring pellets. I’ve written a step-by-step guide for custom coloring, available on my Greenboy3D Wiki, so you can easily bring your creative vision to life.
High Quality, Low Cost
By choosing Premium PETG Pellets, you’re not just saving money—you’re gaining the flexibility to print exactly what you need, in the colors you want, all while cutting down on material costs. Whether you’re working on artistic prints, functional parts, or large-scale projects, PETG pellets are the smart and cost-effective choice for any maker.

What people say about Greenboy3D
Save up to 90% on your 3D printing costs
Every filament and piece of plastic you’ve seen started as plastic pellets. While a spool of filament (1kg) costs $20 – $60, the same amount in pellets is just $3 – $8.
You can save up to 90% on printing costs by upgrading your 3D printer with my universal Pellet-Extruder-Printhead, allowing you to print directly with pellets.
More about PelletsRecycle plastic waste into anything
With a Greenboy Pellet-Extruder-Printhead, you can recycle any plastic waste—like empty filament spools, water bottles, yogurt cups, and failed prints—into new objects.
Simply shred the plastic into pieces smaller than 0.2 inches (5 mm) and 3D print with them again. This method offers a sustainable future, turning plastic waste into new, purposeful items instead of discarding it.
More about Recyling3D print with chocolate, sugar or anything else melting in the range: Ambient – 330 C°
It’s true! You can 3D print chocolate with my Pellet-Extruder-Printhead. Though not originally intended, any meltable material smaller than 0.2 inches (5 mm) works fine.
For food safety, most parts in contact with food are stainless steel. If strict food safety is a priority, you can spray the rest of the extruder with food-grade silicone spray or use other methods…

Advantages of my Greenboy Pellet Extruder
Extremely Universal
Thanks to the concept of using 3D printable adapters, you can use this extruder on almost any 3D Printer
Lightweight ~ 700 grams
Through innovative thinking I managed to replace a lot of metals parts with 3D printable plastic parts and this significantly reduced the weight
Most inexpensive Pellet Extruder
Through innovative thinking and some new approaches I managed to reduce the production costs, which allows to have a lower price
Easy to use
Thanks to some special features, it is quite easy to use this pellet extruder, because many problems conventional 3D Pellet Extruders have like unloading pellets have been solved
125 – 200g/h Flowrate
Depending on the material you use, its size, shape and viscosity, you can expect to achieve a maximum flowrate between 125 – 200 grams per hour with a 1mm nozzle. Using a bigger or smaller nozzle does influence the maximum flowrate capabilities…

Control color and transparency level of your prints
Instead of buying pre-colored filament and being limited to that color and spool, you can buy a bag of plastic pellets and some color pigments, sprays or paint.
Now you can universally print with any color you desire at a fraction of the filament cost simply by mixing a specific amount of pellets with a chosen color, which will result in, for example, 1/2 pounds of blue-colored PLA for one of your specific projects.
Depending on the concentration of colors in your pellets, you can achieve everything in the range of transparent prints with a little color and up to full-solid color prints. Another cool thing is mixing or stacking different batches of colored pellets on top of each other. This will give amazing gradient colors to your 3D prints, as you can see in the image nearby.
Step 1

Step 2
Mix everything by shaking
Step 3
Let everything dry out
+ you can add custom additives to your pellets
“Additives” is a word for substances that improve or change the properties of plastics. By using the same methods for coloring your pellets, you can add, for example, “glow in the dark” substances to your pellets to get cool-looking prints that glow at night. But that is just one out of many possibilities you can try out…
The Person behind Greenboy3D
Hi, my name is Kristian, I’m 23 years old and my mission is to make Pellet 3D Printing globally less expensive and more accessible…
Back in the year 2022 I was very frustrated with the cost of 3D Printing and especially the waste it produces. At that time, I knew that 3D printing directly with Plastic Pellets & Shredded waste is possible.
But there were no low cost options, and it also seemed like as if the 3D printing industry doesn’t have much interest in developing this technology, despite its great potential.
This frustrated me even more, so I decided to develop my own Pellet Extruder without having any knowledge about engineering at that time…
For more than 2 years I struggled, worked extremely hard and spent most of my income on the development while living under poor conditions…
No matter how hard times were, I never gave up and this why Greenboy3D exists today…
