By maintaining local inventory and a dedicated domestic infrastructure, we ensure you get world-class 3D printing technology without the friction of international shipping and customs.

The Global Story Behind Elegoo

Every great creation starts with a vision. The name ELEGOO is a combination of two distinct concepts:

  • "ELE" comes from the word electronic, representing the open-source electronic foundation of modern making.
  • "GOO" comes from the mathematical term googol (1 followed by 100 zeros), symbolizing the infinite structural shapes, models, and possibilities that a 3D printer can bring to life.

Combined, Elegoo represents the perfect synergy of open-source electronics and physical structures—giving creators the power to build almost anything.

The Beginning of The Story

The global brand journey began in 2015 in Shenzhen, China's technology hub, when founder Chris Hong set out to solve a major problem in the maker community. While open-source electronics were growing, STEM education wasn't accessible enough for everyday beginners, and creators lacked the affordable tools needed to combine electronic hardware with clean, functional physical shells.

Believing that the applications of STEM should be ubiquitous—from automated robotics to daily lifestyle solutions—Chris utilized advanced local supply chains and top-tier technical talent to create practical, budget-friendly tools. Elegoo was built so that students, hobbyists, and veteran geeks alike could access high-precision 3D printing technology at an approachable price point.
