Frequently Asked Questions
What is ModProj?
ModProj is a brand dedicated to crafting eco-friendly, 3D-printed home decor, pet accessories, and unique products with a modern, playful twist. Inspired by mid-century modern aesthetics, each piece is created under our Near Zero Design Ethos — minimizing waste and maximizing creativity through sustainable, made-to-order production.
We believe in luxury with a conscience — thoughtful, functional design that’s bespoke to you and kind to the planet.
Are ModProj products customizable?
Yes! Many ModProj items are available in various colors and styles. You can mix and match components like lamps and shades, treat jars and lids, or slow feeders and bowls to create a look that suits your unique taste — making each piece truly bespoke to you. If you don’t see what you’re dreaming of, send us a message — we’d love to help create something unique to you.
What material are ModProj products made from?
Our products are crafted from PLA, a biodegradable, eco-friendly material made from renewable resources like corn starch. PLA is durable for home use and offers a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics.
Items from our Pet Collection are additionally finished with an FDA-approved, food-safe resin (Title 21 CFR 175.300) for extra durability and protection — ensuring they’re both pet-safe and easy to clean.
How do I care for my ModProj 3D-printed items?
For items exposed to food or moisture, such as pet bowls, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap and water. Do not place items in the dishwasher, as high temperatures will warp the PLA material.
To sanitize, you can use a UV light to neutralize bacteria and other microorganisms effectively. Additionally, a gentle wipe-down with a diluted 70/30 solution of isopropyl alcohol and water is safe and effective for cleaning without damaging the material. For more detailed care, check our [Care Guide].
Are ModProj products safe for pets?
Yes, ModProj products are crafted with eco-friendly, non-toxic PLA, making them safe for pets. Each piece is finished with an FDA-approved, food-safe resin coating (Title 21 CFR 175.300) to ensure additional protection and durability. However, we recommend following the additional care instructions listed above (see question 4) for further sanitation, especially if your pet uses the items frequently.
Can I use water in my ModProj vases for fresh flowers?
Yes! Our vases are designed to hold water, making them perfect for fresh flowers, as well as dried, silk or other arrangements. Enjoy the versatility and style they bring to all your floral displays.
How long does it take to receive my order?
Since each ModProj item is 3D-printed on demand, please allow 3-5 days for manufacturing before your order is ready to ship. This process ensures that each piece is crafted with care, just for you. Once printed, shipping times will vary depending on your location. You’ll receive a notification with tracking details as soon as your order is on its way!
Are ModProj products available internationally?
We plan to offer international shipping soon! Please check back or join our mailing list for updates on global availability.
How sustainable is ModProj?
At ModProj, sustainability isn’t a trend — it’s our foundation. Every piece embodies our Near Zero Design Ethos, meaning each product is digitally crafted and 3D printed with minimal waste and maximum efficiency. By printing on demand, we eliminate the excess inventory, overproduction, and shipping waste common in traditional manufacturing.
Our materials reflect our values: eco-friendly, non-toxic PLA derived from renewable resources, and finished with an FDA-approved, food-safe resin compliant with Title 21 CFR 175.300 for durability and safety. Even our packaging and production workflow are designed to reduce our footprint — from locally made parts to recyclable shipping materials.
We call it luxury with a conscience — modern, timeless design that’s bespoke to you yet kind to the planet.
What if I want to return my item?
ModProj products are made to order and are generally non-refundable. If you’re not completely satisfied with your purchase, please contact us within 30 days of receiving your order — we’ll review your situation and do our best to make it right.
Please note: slight variations are normal due to the unique 3D-printing process, adding to each piece’s individuality.
Can I use a smart bulb with ModProj lamps?
Yes! ModProj lamps are compatible with most standard smart bulbs, allowing you to adjust colors and brightness to create the perfect ambiance in your space.
