What new material(s) do you think the filament market isn't providing, or isn't providing well?

[muckychris]

I need more variations on color options - I see the same selections from most providers.
Clients need specific colors to match their brands an while we can't provide PMS color matches I'd like to come closer to their desired colors than is currently available.
The new bronzefill filament is great but hard to find and expensive.

Truely flexible like threads.. and conductive...... Wearables are the next distrupting it will be great to print with conductive threads using a 3D PRinter.

I don't think the glow in the dark filaments are great, they really don't glow. Flexible filaments seem really expensive. Bright and bold colors are also really scarce.

Still the copper filaments that woulld allow for rapid prototyping of PCB's

[questpact]

Laywood / carbon fiber filament.

[roddy]

Conductors.

[GrantGabrielson]

I have not seen enough conducive print material.

[repkid]

I would like to see photo- and thermo-sensitive filaments in materials other than PLA.

Electrically conductive flexible filaments which allow for wearable technology and proper utilization of carbon nanotubes within filament that actually contribute a significant amount of purpose.
