At RESINMEMORY, every piece is carefully designed and handcrafted. From the initial concept to the final product, our artisans pour countless hours and professional expertise into each creation. This article takes you deep into our crafting process.

Step One: Design and Concept

Every project begins with an in-depth design phase. Our design team works closely with clients to understand their needs and vision. Whether it's a classic diver figure or a personalized custom design, we create detailed design drawings and 3D models.

During the design phase, we consider the following factors:

  • Aesthetic Balance: Ensuring all elements are visually harmonious
  • Functionality: Ensuring proper LED lighting placement and effects
  • Structural Integrity: Ensuring the piece remains stable long-term
  • Personalized Elements: Incorporating clients' special requirements and preferences

Step Two: Material Selection

We only use the highest quality transparent resin materials. These materials undergo strict quality control to ensure:

  • Clarity: Crystal clear, free of bubbles and impurities
  • Durability: UV resistant, won't yellow over time
  • Safety: Meets all safety standards, non-toxic and harmless
  • Stability: Won't shrink or deform

Step Three: Mold Making

Based on design drawings, we create precise silicone molds. This process requires extreme precision, as any small error can affect the final product quality. Our mold-making process includes:

  • 3D printing prototype creation
  • Precise silicone mold casting
  • Fine mold trimming and testing
  • Quality checks to ensure perfect matching

Step Four: Resin Pouring

This is the most critical step in the entire process. Our artisans must precisely control:

  • Temperature Control: Resin must be mixed and poured at specific temperatures
  • Timing: All operations must be completed before the resin begins to cure
  • Bubble Removal: Using professional equipment to remove all bubbles
  • Layered Pouring: For complex designs, multiple pours are required

Step Five: Curing and Polishing

After pouring, the piece must cure in a strictly controlled environment. This process may take several days to ensure the resin fully hardens. After curing, we perform fine polishing:

  • Coarse grinding to remove surface irregularities
  • Fine grinding to achieve a smooth surface
  • Polishing to achieve a mirror finish
  • Final inspection to ensure perfection

Step Six: LED Lighting Installation

All RESINMEMORY pieces feature built-in LED lighting systems. Our installation process includes:

  • Precise circuit design
  • Safe wire routing
  • Precise LED installation
  • Switch and dimmer integration
  • Comprehensive electrical safety testing

Step Seven: Quality Inspection

Before a piece leaves our studio, it must pass strict quality inspections:

  • Visual inspection: Ensuring no bubbles or flaws
  • Dimension check: Ensuring it meets design specifications
  • Lighting test: Ensuring the LED system works properly
  • Structural check: Ensuring the piece is stable and reliable
  • Packaging check: Ensuring safe shipping
