How to Select the Ideal Epoxy Resin for Tables or Floors

When planning a resin table or new flooring, selecting the right epoxy resin is essential to achieving a durable, high-quality finish. The choice largely depends on the thickness and size of your project, as well as your desired finish.

Epoxy Resins for Tables: Depth Matters

When casting tables or large decorative items, always match the resin to your pour thickness. For medium to large projects up to 5cm deep, EpoxyTable 5-Five offers a practical balance of clarity, strength, and safe curing. If your project requires pouring resin up to 10cm deep, such as for river tables or deep-cast features, opt for EpoxyTable 10-Ten. Both options are formulated for fewer bubbles and a reliable finish, but exceeding their recommended thickness may require pour layering to prevent over-heating or surface distortion.

Flooring Solutions: Permeable and Decorative Options

For pebble or permeable floors, a standard table resin isn’t ideal. Instead, resin binder systems like Flowstone or transparent binders such as Trasparente are designed to encapsulate aggregates effectively and allow water drainage where required. These solutions are suited to driveways, patios, and outdoor paths, combining durability with custom finishes in a straightforward kit format.

Practical Tips for Selecting and Applying Epoxy Resin

  • Always check the recommended casting thickness for your resin before starting your project.
  • Layer your pours if your project exceeds 5cm or 10cm, depending on the chosen resin, allowing adequate time between layers.
  • For permeable flooring, follow kit instructions carefully and select your binder according to the type and colour of your aggregates.
