Ecrylimer in Film and Theatre: Crafting Props and Sets Safely and Sustainably

Hey There, Creative Visionaries!

Lights, camera, Ecrylimer! If you're a set designer, prop maker, or theatre enthusiast in Australia looking to up your game, you've just stumbled upon a game-changer. Meet Ecrylimer—your new best friend for casting, coating and crafting props and sets that are not only stunning but also safe and eco-friendly! 🌿


Why Ecrylimer is the Star of the Show ⭐


Silica-Free Casting Resin for a Healthier Workspace

Safety should never be an afterthought. Traditional casting materials often contain harmful substances like crystalline silica, posing serious health risks during sanding or cutting. All of the Ecrylimer range is VOC and 100% silica-free, offering a non-toxic alternative that keeps your creative space safe. Breathe easy knowing you're working with a material that's as kind to you as it is to the environment.

Fast-Setting Eco Resin for Theatre Props

Time is of the essence in production schedules. Ecrylimer sets fast and hard, allowing you to move swiftly from concept to creation. Whether you're on a tight deadline or need quick adjustments, this fast-setting resin keeps up with the pace of the industry without compromising on quality.

Skinning Styrofoam and Frames - Lightweight and Durable Film Set Materials

Creating large-scale props and set pieces doesn't have to mean dealing with heavy, cumbersome materials. Ecrylimer can be used to "skin" lightweight structures like styrofoam, plaster bandages, or wire frames, resulting in pieces that are both lightweight and incredibly durable. This makes installation, handling, and transportation a breeze—perfect for dynamic theatre environments and on-location film shoots.


Versatility That Sparks Creativity

Layering, Sanding, Painting, and Sealing

Ecrylimer's versatility is a dream come true for artists and designers. You can layer it to add depth, sand it for precision, drill it for assembly, and sculpt it into intricate shapes. Once your piece is formed, it's ready to be painted in any style—whether you're aiming for rustic textures or sleek finishes. Seal with our collection of finishes for added protection and longevity, ensuring your creations withstand the rigors of performances and shoots.

Mixing with Epoxy Resin

For projects requiring waterproofing straight out of the mold, or additional strength, Ecrylimer can be mixed with epoxy resin. This combination creates a lightweight, stone-like composite that's perfect for outdoor sets or props exposed to the elements. It's this kind of adaptability that makes Ecrylimer a valuable tool in any prop maker's kit.


Sustainable Materials for Set Design

In an industry increasingly focused on sustainability, Ecrylimer stands out as an eco-friendly prop-making material. Choosing Ecrylimer means reducing your environmental footprint without sacrificing performance or aesthetic quality. It's a material that aligns with conscious production practices, contributing to a greener future for the arts.
