Minimised Resin Contact

Liquid resin scored as non-skin irritant according to OECD 439, a standard commonly used in the cosmetics industry, to minimise the risks from incidental skin contact with resin.

 Low VOC Emissions

The Alpha Resins are the first resin printing materials to achieve UL GREENGUARD Gold, an independent standard certifying low VOC emissions for homes, offices, schools, and other indoor environments. This certification is for the printing process - not just for a final part.

 Skin-Safe Parts

Post-processed parts meet requirements for long-term (>30 day) skin contact, in accordance with ISO 10993, meaning they can be used in wearables and high-contact applications.

Formlabs resin is safe skin contct - ideally suited to schools

Low-Odour Components

Formulated using low-odour chemicals, ensuring a pleasant printing experience.

What Does UL GREENGUARD Gold Certified Mean? 

Formlabs Alpha resins, paired with the Formlabs Form Studio 1 printing system and VOC Extractor filtration add-on, is the world's first resin 3D printing system to achieve UL GREENGUARD Gold Certification for indoor air quality under the UL 2819 standard.

A UL GREENGUARD Certificate GOLD is an official verification issued by UL Solutions that proves a product meets strict, science-based limits for low chemical and volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions into indoor air.


Indoor air pollution and children's health

Children are especially at risk of the health effects of poor indoor air quality because their immune and neurological systems are still developing. In order to protect children's health, it is vital to limit their exposure to chemicals in homes, schools and other indoor environments.

Professional Printing for everyone

Formlabs Make it Safe.

Formlabs Alpha Black Resin fundamentally transcends the traditional boundaries and historical limitations of desktop stereolithography. By pairing stunning optical clarity with true engineering-grade physical toughness- exceeding standard ABS-like parameters with a 38 MPa tensile strength, an 1800 MPa flexural modulus, and a highly ductile 32% elongation at break—it establishes itself as an indispensable tool for functional prototyping, rapid tooling, and presentation-grade modeling.

More importantly, it systematically dismantles the chemical hazards and environmental safety constraints that have historically barred resin 3D printing from mainstream use in schools, homes, and standard offices. By engineering an advanced, ACMO-free, low-odor formulation that meets strict ISO 10993 biocompatibility and OECD 439 dermal safety standards, Formlabs has eliminated the acute user hazards that have plagued the industry for decades. When utilised within the closed-loop Form Studio 1 ecosystem alongside the active carbon filtration of the VOC Extractor and the non-flammable Resin Washing Solution, Alpha Clear Resin proudly stands as a cornerstone of the first SLA platform to achieve the prestigious UL GREENGUARD Gold certification for low chemical emissions.

For educators, independent designers, and corporate engineers, Alpha Grey Resin offers the ultimate manufacturing guarantee: blazing fast, phenomenally accurate, optically transparent production, executed within a workflow that is demonstrably and undeniably safe for any indoor environment.
