BioMed White Resin is a rigid material for biocompatible applications requiring long-term skin (>30 days) or short-term bone, tissue, dentin, and mucosal membrane contact (<24 hours).
Parts printed with BioMed White Resin are compatible with common solvent disinfection and sterilization methods.
BioMed White Resin is manufactured in our FDA-registered, ISO 13485-certified facility and is also USP Class VI certified, which makes it suitable for pharmaceutical and drug delivery applications.

2 Data were measured on post-cured samples printed on a Form 3B with 100 µm BioMed White Resin settings, washed in a Form Wash for 5 minutes in 99% isopropyl alcohol.
3 BioMed White Resin was tested at NAMSA World Headquarters, OH, USA.
Post-Processing
Washing
BioMed White Resin may be washed using either a Formlabs-validated wash unit or an ultrasonic wash unit.
The foundational step in any SLA post-processing workflow is to remove excess resin on the surface of the parts through an alcohol wash. Please refer to the material's manufacturing guide/IFU for washing instructions.

Curing
For biocompatible materials, post-curing is necessary to achieve the safety standards determined by regulatory agencies. Please follow the material’s manufacturing guide/IFU for proper post-processing.
