Are there odourless resin options for indoor use?

Odourless and Low-VOC Resins Explained

Many traditional resins release noticeable fumes, which can be problematic indoors. Modern alternatives such as Icrystal are specifically developed to be odourless and VOC-free. These formulations are free from solvents, making them a better option for home studios, crafts, jewellery, and furniture coating where air circulation may be limited.

Tips for Using Resin Indoors

• Always work in a well-ventilated area, even when using low-odour or VOC-free products.
• Wear gloves and avoid direct skin contact with uncured resin.
• Plan your projects to suit the recommended maximum pour thickness (like 1.5cm per layer for Icrystal).

For art, coasters, or furniture surfaces, odourless options such as Icrystal provide professional finishes without leaving a lingering smell.

When Odourless Resin Matters

If you’re working in a shared or enclosed space, or if you’re sensitive to strong smells, choosing an odourless resin will ensure both comfort and peace of mind. This is especially useful for hobbyists, families, or anyone crafting at home.
