About ESUN
Overview
eSUN (also stylized as eSUN 3D) is a global manufacturer of 3D printing materials, consumables, and related accessories. The company specializes in polymer material research and development, producing filaments, resins, engineering plastics, and other additive manufacturing materials for hobbyists, educational institutions, manufacturers, and industrial users. [1]
On Lazada Philippines, eSUN products are commonly listed under the Printers & Scanners category because they are accessories and consumables for 3D printers. Although categorized alongside printers, eSUN is not a manufacturer of conventional inkjet, laser, or document scanners. Instead, it is a specialist brand focused on materials for additive manufacturing. [9]
History
Founded in 2002, eSUN has grown into one of the world’s largest suppliers of 3D printing consumables. The company focuses on material innovation and sustainable manufacturing, with products exported to more than 100 countries and regions. [2]
eSUN originated as a company dedicated to polymer materials and biodegradable plastics. As desktop 3D printing became more accessible during the 2010s, the company expanded into the production of 3D printer filaments, becoming one of the earliest large-scale manufacturers in the industry.
Its long experience in polymer chemistry allowed the company to develop a broad range of materials designed for different printing applications, from consumer-grade PLA to industrial engineering plastics. [3]
