    Hello Shapeways Community,

    Starting today, Shapeways is proud to offer EOS PA11, a market-ready solution for orthosis and prosthesis. This material will be accessible to all designers and businesses in the Shapeways community.

    PA11 is a biocompatible nylon material that is optimal for use in exterior medical applications such as customized orthotic braces and prosthetics. It is tensile, durable, and impact-resistant with a high elongation at break point. PA11 will be offered in a natural white finish that can be easily dyed to any color.

    To learn more and receive a quote, please find the PA11 material page.

    Thank you,
    Greg

    Is this going to be made into a storefront material at any point? I'd like to know if there's a reason for me to start working with it.

    Nifty material, but I'm not sure this is aimed at us small-time hobbyists - the whole "request a quote" thing says "don't bother if you're not a big company" to me. Are we going to get actual pricing formulas eventually?

    Please add a materials page for this material and add to the 'select a material' selection in the my models selection. That way we can start to order it and give it a try.
