Resins That Allow Deep Pours Up to 5cm with Low Exothermic Reaction

Why Choose a Deep Pour, Low-Exotherm Epoxy?

Standard epoxy resins are not designed for thick layers, as they can overheat (exotherm) and cure unevenly or even crack. Deep pour resins, like EpoxyTable 5-Five, are formulated to control the curing reaction, allowing safe pouring of up to 5cm in a single layer. This makes them ideal for sizeable projects such as ‘river’ tables or encasing large objects.

Practical Tips for Deep Pour Resin Projects

• Work slowly: Pouring too quickly or exceeding the recommended thickness can lead to excessive heat and potential defects.
• Follow temperature guidelines: Carry out deep pours in a cool, well-ventilated area to help the resin cure steadily.
• Avoid rushing curing: Do not use external heat sources to speed up curing, as this can increase the risk of overheating.
• Use suitable resins: For pours between 2 and 5cm, opt for products specifically labelled for deep casting, such as EpoxyTable 5-Five. For thinner layers, consider Trasparente or Icrystal for smaller projects or detail work.

When Deep Pour Matters

Choosing a resin that supports up to 5cm deep pours is essential for projects like large tabletops, embedding objects, or any application that needs a thick, glass-like effect in one go. Using the correct formula helps ensure a clear, strong finish without unwanted heat damage.
