Epoxy

A useful material for hardening, curing, and other various uses.

Notes

Epoxy is a refined industrial material used in advanced crafting, primarily as a binding agent for composites, high-tier upgrades, and specialized goods like carpets and steel components. It is produced through the Epoxy recipe and serves as an ingredient in items such as Composite Lumber, Modern Upgrade 4, and Substrate, making it a key input for mid-to-late-game construction and manufacturing. Because it appears in multiple high-value recipes, ensuring a steady supply of Epoxy is important for keeping advanced production lines running.
