Why choose BioMed Black Resin?

Medical-grade material

Manufactured under ISO 13485 quality management for improved traceability and process confidence in medical environments.

High contrast + excellent definition

The matte black finish helps create contrast for visualization while supporting precise features and complex geometries.

Biocompatible and sterilizable

Designed for applications requiring biocompatibility with compatibility guidance for common disinfection and sterilization workflows.

Applications

Use BioMed Black Resin for rigid parts where biocompatibility and a matte, high-contrast finish are important.

  • Medical devices and device components
  • Biocompatible molds, jigs, and fixtures
  • End-use parts requiring patient contact
  • Consumer goods
  • Pharmaceutical and drug-delivery related components where USP Class VI is required

Note: Material properties may vary based on part design and process. Validate fit, performance, and biocompatibility for your specific use case.

Workflow overview

Standard SLA sequence of wash → dry → post-cure, with strict discipline for biocompatible use: dedicated validated equipment, following the Manufacturing Guide/IFU, and internal validation for your application.

Typical post-processing summary

  • Wash: Alcohol wash in a Formlabs-validated wash unit or an ultrasonic wash unit (per guide).
  • Dry: Allow parts to dry completely before curing.
  • Post-cure: Required for biocompatible materials; follow the validated cure cycle in the Manufacturing Guide/IFU.

Best practice: Always follow the official Manufacturing Guide/IFU for your exact equipment, settings, and regulatory needs.

Sterilization & disinfection

Parts printed with BioMed Black Resin are compatible with common solvent disinfection and sterilization methods. Refer to the documentation for detailed compatibility guidance and any validated conditions.

Important: Material properties vary with geometry, settings, and sterilization method. Validate your complete process for each application.
