We have started the process of looking critically at each of our Market Day 2025 projects and asking ourselves how we can offer something different to our project and how we can increase the desirability of our products. One of the discussion points that we have had was our students was how they might be able to integrate glow-in-the-dark filament into their current designs. This filament would be used as a point of difference for a design as we see it used infrequently. The process by which it is used in the classroom is identical to how regular PLA is used, the only difference that we have noted in the past on this blog was that the quality of the print was not as robust with this speciality filament. This is not the case anymore as the PLA that we have been using has printed more or less exactly how we would expect it to print. Previously when we printed using the special PLA it tended to be something we moved away from after a short space of time for that reason. In this case we took three examples of Market Day 2025 Products and applied the same process to them.
Although the photographs shown do not completely show it, there is a clear level of illumination from using the product which gives it a point of difference.
Several of our Market Day 2025 products either feature light or light aspects (as we have shown night lights have proven to be popular). As a result combining the design with the student creations have served the dual person of further innovation but also allowing a point of difference to be created.
