About ExtrudeLocally
ExtrudeLocally is a vetted directory of 3D printer filament manufacturers, focused on North American and European production. Our goal: make it easy to buy filament made near you with transparency about where each spool is extruded. We believe distributed manufacturing should also have a distributed supply chain.
Vetting criteria
- Production is real. We verify the filament is actually extruded at the stated location.
- Made-in accuracy. Every listing states the country where the filament is produced. Companies HQ'd elsewhere but producing locally qualify; resellers of Chinese-made stock don't.
- Operational business. An active website and reachable ordering channel.
- Local pickup honesty. Pickup claims are spot-checked before the "Local pickup ✓" badge is granted.
