BioMed Black Resin—
Why Choose BioMed Black Resin?
Fuel medical innovation using 3D printing and BioMed Black Resin for producing end-use devices where performance and biocompatibility are critical.

Medical-Grade Material
Leverage a material manufactured within our Quality Management System, with strict adherence to ISO 13485.
Excellent Definition
Produce parts and assemblies with complex designs and geometries.
High Contrast
Create contrast between substances or surfaces to aid in visualization with the black, matte finish of BioMed Black Resin.
Biocompatible and Sterilizable Parts
Testing conducted by Formlabs for common use cases is intended to instill confidence that this material is suitable for biocompatible applications.
Applications*
Use BioMed Black Resin for producing rigid parts for point-of-care and medical manufacturing applications requiring biocompatibility and matte finish.
*Unlike Formlabs Dental Resins, no intended uses are provided for BioMed Resins. Material properties may vary based on part design, manufacturing practices, and other methods. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility and its respective customers and end-users to determine the biocompatibility and performance of all printed parts for their respective application and use. To instill confidence in potential users, Formlabs has tested biocompatibility and sterilization compatibility for common use cases and manufactures BioMed Resins in an ISO 13485 certified facility. We can offer representative examples of what customers have done with our products and the supporting documentation we make freely available.

1 Material properties may vary based on part geometry, print orientation, print settings, temperature, and disinfection or sterilization methods used.
2 Data were measured on post-cured samples printed on a Form 3B with 100um BioMed Black Resin settings, washed in a Form Wash for 5 minutes in 99% isopropyl alcohol.
3 BioMed Black Resin was tested at NAMSA World Headquarters, OH, USA.
Post-Processing
Washing
BioMed Black Resin may be washed using either a Formlabs-validated wash unit (1) or an ultrasonic wash unit (2).
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.
SETTINGS
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.
