Many people ask if epoxy is food safe or "FDA Approved." The answer is a bit more complicated than a simple yes/no. Some CURED epoxy is possible to be food safe. However, when talking about Epoxy Resin Kits, the customer is the one measuring, mixing, pouring, etc. It is up the customer to properly measure, mix, pour and ultimately properly cure, in order for certain epoxies to be food grade.

If a customer were to mix a "FDA Approved" epoxy and it did not properly cure, then the epoxy is no longer safe to come in contact with food. Therefore, it is possible for these types of epoxies to be food safe or NOT be, all dependent on who is using the product.

This is especially important to consider when making tumblers, custom cutting boards, counter tops etc.

When in doubt, check with the manufacturer.
