These artificial flowers are crafted from high-quality materials such as latex, silicone, and PVC, giving them a realistic appearance and long-lasting durability.
Latex creates natural flowers by coating synthetic fabric with a liquid polymer. This process is commonly used in home decor, weddings, and events. Silicone, on the other hand, is a synthetic material that combines the properties of rubber and plastic polymer. It is molded into flower shapes without using fabric, making it less likely to be toxic.
Consider using Polyurethane (PU) foam instead of silk for a natural look and feel. It is a safe and sustainable option that is not toxic, although it can be sensitive to excessive sunlight and humidity.
PVC, which is more durable and stronger than PU, is a popular alternative. It is also more resilient when exposed to natural elements.
Although 3D printing is ideal for creating intricate floral petals, it results in significant waste during cutting, which makes the final product more expensive. However, it produces incredibly realistic flowers.
