Are dyes and handles included in all tray kits?

What’s usually included in a resin tray kit?

Some resin tray kits are designed as all-in-one solutions, offering everything needed for creative crafting. For example, the Complete Resin Tray Kit provides not only professional epoxy resin and a silicone mould, but also supplies dense colour dyes for decorative effects and sturdy metal handles for a premium finish. However, not all tray kits include these extras. It’s common for basic mould sets to come without dyes or handles, focusing solely on the shape for casting.

How to check for included dyes and handles

When browsing resin tray kits, carefully review the product description. Kits with added value will always list components like dyes, handles, mixing tools, or step-by-step instructions. If these features matter to your project, select a kit that makes these accessories clear. For moulds sold alone, such as the Silicone Mould for Resin, you’ll likely need to purchase handles or dyes separately, giving you more freedom to customise.

When this matters

• If you want to start immediately or create professional-looking trays as gifts, choosing a kit that includes both dyes and handles saves time and ensures consistent results.
• For hobbyists or advanced crafters seeking more control over style or finish, mould-only packs may be preferred to select pigments and hardware independently.
