Emergency and exceptional situations
Formlabs has made every effort to provide updated safety data sheets (SDS) for every resin
product, in accordance with the latest government guidelines. Always consult the safety data
sheet (SDS) as the primary source of information to understand safety and handling of Formlabs
materials and required accessories.
3.5.1
Isopropyl alcohol (IPA)
Fire hazard: When handling isopropyl alcohol, always consult the safety data sheet
(SDS) from the isopropyl alcohol supplier as the primary source of information. Handle
isopropyl alcohol with gloves in a well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat, sparks,
and open flame. Isopropyl alcohol evaporates rapidly, so keep the rinse tub and
bottles closed whenever possible.
3.5.2
Resin
Poison hazard: Never ingest resin in liquid or solid form. If swallowed, immediately
call a poison center or medical professional. Contact Chemtrec at +1 800 424 9300
for global 24-hour emergency assistance.
Promptly clean and inspect the printer after a resin spill to minimize any cosmetic or
functional damage to the printer. If you have experienced an accidental resin spill,
document the problem with photos and clean the printer as best as possible. Contact
Formlabs Support or a certified service provider as soon as possible.
