What Affects 3D Printing Cost in Kerala?
- Weight — the single biggest factor. 100 g of PLA = ₹250. We quote by exact model weight, not estimates.
- Material — PETG adds ₹1/g over PLA; ABS adds ₹2.50/g. Choose PETG for parts that flex or face moisture, ABS for heat.
- Infill & walls — 15% infill standard; functional parts get 30–50% (adds weight, hence cost).
- Finishing — sanding/priming/painting quoted per project; basic support removal is free.
- Speed — standard turnaround 2–5 days; 24-hour express available for a small fee.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does 3D printing cost per gram in Kerala?
FOFUS charges ₹2.50/g for PLA, ₹3.50/g for PETG, and ₹5.00/g for ABS — with a ₹199 minimum order. That's the lowest transparent per-gram rate among Kerala 3D printing services with professional farm-grade printers (Bambu Lab fleet).
Is 3D printing expensive in Kerala?
No — a functional phone stand costs about the same as a chai+snack for two (₹250–350). Decor items run ₹500–1,500, and even large cosplay props stay under ₹2,500. The per-gram model means you only pay for what your design actually weighs.
Why is there a ₹199 minimum?
Tiny keychains use only ₹20–40 of material — the minimum covers machine setup, finishing, QC and Kerala-wide delivery. Bulk orders (10+ identical units) get volume discounts and skip the minimum per-unit economics.
