Print the Planet
A world where the power to create and manufacture new products is placed into the hands of everyday people just like you.
In 2004, We set out to build a platform that empowers everyone to create, showcase, buy and sell customized products with 3D printing
Corporate Commitment to the Planet
We produce everything as close to you as possible, often in the same city or state. This reduces shipping which also gives Kraftwurx a low carbon footprint.
