Are your materials toxic?
Our FDM materials are made with a custom blend of commercially available thermoplastic resins. There are no safety concerns with handling materials from FDM systems.

The PolyJet materials using PolyJet technology are environmentally stable, fully cured materials for safe, non-toxic use in office environments.

What colors do you provide?
RedEye offers the following color choices:

• ABS - White, black, blue, red, green, yellow, gray and steel gray. Color Example

• ABSi - Translucent (natural), red translucent and amber translucent. Color Example
  Note: Translucent models would require thin walls to achieve the desired effect. Translucent Example

• ABS-M30 - Ivory, black, dark gray, blue and red. Color Example

• ABS-M30i - Ivory. Color Example

• PC - White. Color Example

• PC-ISO - Translucent (natural) and white. Color Example translucent

• PC/ABS - Black. Color Example

• ULTEM - Tan. Color Example

• PPSF - Tan. Color Example

• Clear PolyJet Resin (FC720). Color Example

• VeroWhite PolyJet Resin (FC830). Color Example

• VeroBlue PolyJet Resin (FC840). Color Example

• VeroBlack PolyJet Resin (FC870). Color Example

• TangoPlus PolyJet Resin (FC930). Color Example

• TangoBlack PolyJet Resin (FC970).Color Example

Do you have clear parts?
The ABSi and PC-ISO materials are not clear or see-through, though are available in "translucent" options. Prototypes with thinner walls are more translucent than parts with thicker walls. Translucent Example

Parts using the Clear PolyJet Resin (FC720) also have a translucent appearance and can be buffed to enhance this.
