    MY YARD Nature White LDPE Sheets

    Flexible, durable LDPE sheets for casting moulds: they capture fine detail like silicone, epoxy resin does not stick to them, and one mould can be reused hundreds of times.

    Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is light, flexible and strong. It reproduces fine detail similar to silicone and does not stick to resin (epoxy) objects. According to MY YARD, silicone moulds typically last about 20 uses, while LDPE moulds can be reused hundreds of times or serve as permanent moulds.

    LDPE is sensitive to high forming pressure and can break above 60 kPa. Reduce the suction power and use the Microporous Forming Bed for the best results.

    Which FORMART does each pack fit?

    Pack Fits Notes
    1.5 mm · 300 × 205 mm · 10-pack FORMART S FORMART SE and FORMART 2 with the included size-switching kit
    1.5 mm · 500 × 300 mm · 10-pack FORMART SE, FORMART 2 Does not fit FORMART S

    300 × 205 mm (A4-size) packs are the FORMART S size and also fit the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 via their size-switching kit. 500 × 300 mm packs use the full format of the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 and are too large for the FORMART S.

    Typical Uses

    • Resin (epoxy) casting moulds
    • Handmade soap moulds
    • Plaster and concrete moulds
    • Detailed reproduction moulds

    Using it with 3D-printed moulds

    Form LDPE over a 3D-printed master to make a reusable casting mould without silicone. Because epoxy does not stick to LDPE, the cast part comes away cleanly and the mould can be used again and again.

    Questions About LDPE Sheets

    Can LDPE replace silicone for resin casting?

    For many moulds, yes. LDPE captures fine detail similar to silicone, epoxy resin does not stick to it, and MY YARD reports LDPE moulds can be reused hundreds of times, against about 20 uses for a typical silicone mould.

    Why does my LDPE sheet break during forming?

    The forming pressure is too high. LDPE can break above 60 kPa: lower the suction power and use the Microporous Forming Bed.

    Which pack fits my FORMART?

    The 300 × 205 mm pack fits the FORMART S, and the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 with their size-switching kit. The 500 × 300 mm pack fits the FORMART SE and FORMART 2 only.
