Epoxy resin is widely used for a range of creative and functional applications, from stunning resin table tops to intricate jewellery pieces. However, not all resins are the same. When working with resin, it is crucial to choose the right type for your project. The two primary categories are casting resin and art resin, each with unique properties designed for different applications. In this article, we will explore their differences and highlight our high-quality products that ensure professional results.
Casting Resins: Deep Pours and Crystal Clarity
Casting resins are formulated to allow deep pours without overheating or cracking. They have a low viscosity, ensuring bubble-free castings, and provide a crystal-clear, high-gloss finish. These resins are perfect for projects requiring deep layers, such as furniture, lamps, and jewellery. Additionally, they have high mechanical resistance, strong yellowing resistance, and no odour, making them ideal for long-lasting and durable creations.
Our Casting Resin Range:
- Icrystal & Trasparente – Ideal for layers up to 2 cm thickness, perfect for jewellery, coasters, and decorative trays. These resins offer bubble-free curing and a flawless glossy surface.
- Epoxytable 5 – Suitable for up to 5 cm thick layers, making it excellent for medium-depth castings like furniture, tables, and larger decorative items.
- Epoxytable 10 – Designed for deep pours up to 10 cm thickness, making it the best choice for large furniture pieces, river tables, and unique lighting projects like lamps.
All these resins offer crystal transparency, excellent mechanical resistance, and are easy to work with, ensuring your creations remain durable and beautiful over time.
Art Resins: Control and Colour Effects
Art resins are specially designed to provide a higher viscosity, allowing better control during the creative process. They are excellent for artistic applications such as Ocean Art, Geode Art, and marble effects, where the movement of resin is a key aspect of the design. Like casting resins, our art resins have strong yellowing resistance, no odour, and a flawless glossy finish.
Our Art Resin Range:
- One-to-One – A medium viscosity resin with a simple 1:1 mixing ratio, making it perfect for art coatings, trays, and decorative items.
- Art Pro – Slightly higher viscosity, ideal for art panels, coasters, and trays with colour effects, ensuring precise control of pigment dispersion.
- Art Pro Deluxe – A super viscous resin designed for Ocean Art, Geode Art, space, and marble effects. This resin provides enhanced colour control and texture.
- Vertical Glass – An ultra-viscous resin that allows relief art coatings, even on vertical and inclined surfaces, making it perfect for 3D effects and textured designs.
- NatuResin – A white mineral resin that creates a ceramic-like finish, perfect for mould castings such as dishes, ashtrays, vases, and trays.
Choosing the Right Resin for Your Project
When deciding between casting resin and art resin, consider the requirements of your project:
- If you need deep pours, bubble-free results, and maximum transparency, choose a casting resin like Icrystal, Trasparente, or Epoxytable 5 and 10.
- If you need high viscosity for controlled artistic effects and colour mixing, go for an art resin such as Art Pro, Art Pro Deluxe, or Vertical Glass.
Whether you are creating a resin table top, an epoxy resin worktop, or an intricate resin artwork, selecting the right type of resin is essential to achieving the best results. Our high-quality resins provide the durability, clarity, and user-friendliness needed to bring your vision to life with ease.
