About us
iSQUARED is a young and dynamic company in the expanding 3D printing industry with its headquarter in Switzerland and locations in Germany. Our holistic concept includes the development and distribution of the largest selection of alternative FDM (fused deposition modeling) and PolyJet materials for Stratasys 3D printers. Our portfolio is complemented by our professional repair and maintenance service, the purchase and sale of used Stratasys printers as well as the consulting, service and distribution of consumables in the field of Stereolithography (SLA). In addition we offer the unlocking of material licenses on Stratasys Fortus 3D printers as well as a printing service with materials developed and produced in-house.
Thanks to our many years of experience in the production of 3D printing materials, we are also a reliable partner for customized material developments for your special applications. We realize your projects by developing exclusive materials tailored to your requirements. The backbone of our high-quality products is our team of specialists and scientists who develop and manufacture our products in our factories in Germany and Switzerland.
In addition, we are supported by numerous business partners in over 50 countries. This enables us to respond directly to the individual needs of our customers by creating solid points of reference in their home countries. Our customers come from all over the world and are market leaders in well-known industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical technology, engineering, research and development, etc.
Founded in 2009 by our CEO Jan-Michael Stepper, iSQUARED is a fast-growing company with a young team committed to advancing 3D printing with our cost-effective innovations for the 3D printing industry.
FDM material
iSQUARED FDM 3D printing materials are an affordable and reliable alternative to Stratasys FDM consumables. Our FDM materials are up to 50% cheaper than the OEM and 100% compatible with the following Stratasys 3D printers:
Our ABS X-TREME X130 has similar properties to the OEM Stratasys material, such as ABS-P400, ABSplus-P430 and ABS-M30. Furthermore, we have developed compatible alternatives for Stratasys ULTEM 9085, ULTEM 1010, ASA, PC, PC-ABS, ABS-ESD7 as well as for Stratasys SR30 and P400SR support material. By relying on a simple self-installation process of the spool into the reusable cassette, we are not only able to ensure competitive prices, but also reduce the environmental impact of our product. While our FDM material spools are available in a wide range of colors, we are also happy to work with you on a custom color order for your individual application. For further details please refer to the FDM Thermoplastics category and select your Stratasys 3D printer type.
PolyJet material
We are incredibly proud of our flagship-product: our PolyJet material series called IORA. With savings of up to 60%, the IORA material can be used in all Stratasys PolyJet 3D printers such as:
- Objet Desktop Series
- Objet Eden Series
- Objet 260 Series
- Objet 350 Series
- Objet 500 Series
- Objet 1000 Plus
- J7 Series
With the IORA materials, iSQUARED provides you with a reliable and efficient alternative to the Stratasys Vero material family, such as VeroClear, VeroPureWhite, VeroWhitePlus, VeroBlackPlus, VeroCyan, VeroMagenta, VeroYellow, VeroBlue and VeroGray. In addition, we have expanded our product line for dental applications with our IORA Model Peach material, which is comparable to the Stratasys VeroDent MED670 and VeroDentPlus MED690. Moreover our rubber-like IORA Model Flex PolyJet material can be used as an alternative for the Agilus30 and TangoPlus to print parts which are robust against twisting, pulling or bending. Our PolyJet products are complemented by our patented support materials, which serve as an alternative to the widely used SUP705 and SUP706 materials by Stratasys. We ship our PolyJet products in plastic bags, which we have integrated into a sturdy and sustainable cardboard case. This product combination can easily be loaded into your Stratasys PolyJet 3D printer without any adjustments. As with our FDM products, we are happy to work together with you directly to provide you with individual colors or material properties, even at smaller batch-sizes. For further details please take a look in the category Photopolymers and your Stratasys 3D printer type.
Stereolithography – SLA
In addition to FDM and PolyJet materials, we offer SLA materials of DSM Somos and service for your SLA printer of 3D Systems. Stereolithography is particularly suitable for the production of parts with very high demands on accuracy, detailing and surface quality. Please contact us for expert advice on this innovative technology.
Repair and maintenance service for Stratasys printers and SLA printers
If your printer breaks down or if it needs maintenance from time to time, we’ve got you covered.

On request, we are also happy to offer other printing processes such as SLA, SLS or SLM as well as various post-processing methods.
Unlocking and Upgrade Service
Get access to all available material licenses for your Stratasys Fortus printer through our Unlocking Service. We'll unlock the licenses you need at an unbeatable price, so you can take advantage of more material options for your print parts.
We also offer the following machine upgrades:
- Upgrade from Fortus 360mc to Fortus 400mc, so you have the possibility to print Ultem material as well as use a larger build space after the upgrade.
- Upgrade from Dimension SST/BST1200 to Fortus 250mc, allowing you to enjoy benefits such as printing in different layer thicknesses and switching from P400SR to SR30 support material.
Refurbished 3D printers
