3D-Seal is a system for creating a sealed, controlled, or sterile environment within your 3D printer for the uncontaminated manufacture of medical devices, food, biologics, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, microchips, and more. Using a 3D-Seal prevents the exposure of your 3D printed items to foreign particles, airborne particulates, bacteria, moisture, molecular contamination, and dust. The 3D-Seal also controls the release of noxious chemicals during the 3D printing process.
Our three key product lines; Steri-Seal, Enviro-Seal, and Clean-Seal; along with their corresponding accessories, provide different features for your 3D printing needs.
Sterility:
Our Steri-Seal printing accessory line enables 3D printing in a truly sterile environment, eliminating the need for sterilization during post processing. This can be especially helpful when printing items with highly complex geometries that are difficult to sterilize or when printing live biologics which simply cannot be sterilized. Our proprietary system prevents the sterile barrier from being broken even upon removal of the printer head.
Cross contamination control:
Our proprietary 3D-Change system in conjunction with our 3D-Seal printing environments guarantees that only your intended material gets incorporated into your 3D print. No residual materials from prior prints can become embedded into your current print, avoiding any contamination/adulteration, or weakening of your print.

- Safeguards the exterior of your product from airborne particulates, bacteria, moisture, dust, and molecular contamination.
- Ensures that foreign particles are not embedded into product layers during manufacturing.
- Ensures sterility even for products with very complex dimensions and geometries.
- Prevents contamination of 3D printed biologic items
- Eliminates the need for expensive sterilization equipment and capabilities for post processing

- Prevents cross contamination of chemical elements (No unwanted Pb in your Ti jet engine blades).
- Prevents cross contamination between cell lines in biologic printing applications (No ear cells in your 3D printed liver).
- Our quick and sterile print change system prevents cross contamination between one allograph or autograph source and another (No cells from Bob end up in Mary’s printed kidney).
- No allergy-inducing cross contamination in your printed food products (No peanut ends up in your allergic customer’s Nutella).
- No cross contamination between your custom printed drug formulations (No birth-control hormones in your Viagra).
Gaseous environmental control:
Our Enviro-Seal system provides control of the gaseous environment around your 3D printed product during processing. This enables the printing of high cost engineering materials that require strict environmental control without the need for high cost capital equipment to control the manufacturing environment. It also creates a safer working environment around the 3D printer.

- Prevents noxious gasses created during the printing process from escaping into the work environment
- Keeps undesirable gasses out of the 3D printing environment (such as O2 out of your inert gas printing environment).
- Retains desirable gasses necessary for your printing or coating process within the print chamber
Easy Clean Up:
Using 3D-Seal eliminates the mess in your 3D printer left after printing an object, reducing the need for and difficulty of clean up.
