Sunstella's Exciting Transition to Pankroma™
In a bold move to revamp its brand identity, Sunstella Co., Ltd., based in Tokyo, Japan, is launching its latest product, Pankroma™ mattePLA, starting January 15, 2026. This new filament will replace the well-loved PolyTerra™ PLA from Polymaker, marking a significant shift in the company’s product line. With this change, Sunstella is also hosting a special farewell sale for all existing PolyTerra™ PLA items, ensuring long-time users can stock up on their favorite products before they're replaced.
Transition from PolyTerra™ PLA to Pankroma™ mattePLA
PolyTerra™ PLA has garnered widespread acclaim in Japan for its vibrant color array and beautiful matte finish, which has attracted users for years. The latest decision by Polymaker reflects a global strategy to unify branding and product quality under the new Pankroma™ series. With this upgrade, the former PolyTerra™ PLA transition into the new Pankroma™ mattePLA as part of the brand's commitment to excellence.
Features of Pankroma™ mattePLA
- - Varied Color Range: The new Pankroma™ mattePLA will boast an extraordinary lineup of 38 colors, catering to a variety of applications, from design to prototyping.
- - Elegant Matte Finish: Its refined matte texture minimizes light reflection, making layer lines barely noticeable while enhancing the design's aesthetics.
- - Reliable Printing Qualities: Designed for seamless use, it preserves the easy handling characteristic of PLA while reducing warping and stringing, making it suitable for both beginners and industrial purposes.
- - Consistent Color Philosophy: Pankroma™ reflects a cohesive approach to color reproduction, reinforcing the integrity and consistency of the product line.
Launch Details
The Pankroma™ mattePLA will be gradually available as existing stocks of PolyTerra™ PLA are depleted, with all sales occurring through Sunstella’s online store and authorized retailers beginning on January 15, 2026. Importantly, the filament's operational performance and printing characteristics will remain consistent with its predecessor, ensuring a smooth transition for users.
Goodbye Sale for PolyTerra™ PLA
Along with the transition, Sunstella will initiate a farewell sale for the PolyTerra™ PLA lineup. Starting January 15, 2026, customers can enjoy a 10% discount on all remaining PolyTerra™ products until stocks last. However, new Pankroma™ mattePLA items will not be included in this promotion.
