The proper storing of 3D printing filament might be of prime importance in the maintenance of quality and performances proposed for the printing product. Filament should be stored in a dry place to avoid moisture absorption, which could cause problems with printing like bubbling and poor layer adhesion. Storing in airtight containers with silica desiccant sachets is recommended. Some save them in vacuum-sealed bags for long-term storage. Also, storing the filament away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures helps preserve its properties to a large extent. Other ways to ensure quality printing at all times are by checking for filament for moisture, such as when the filament is brittle or has surface defects.
