COSHH Assessment — Epoxy Resin (Bisphenol A Diglycidyl Ether / BADGE)

This pre-completed COSHH assessment covers epoxy resin based on bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) — used across electronics, aerospace, marine and construction for adhesives, coatings and encapsulation. The hazard profile applies to the uncured resin; cured epoxy is inert.

What Does This COSHH Assessment Cover?

The assessment is fully completed and ready to use, covering all sections required for a complete hazardous substance risk assessment:

• Substance identification — trade name, chemical name (BADGE-based resin with amine hardener), SDS reference and physical state
• Health effects and first aid — inhalation, ingestion, skin contact and eye contact, with specific first aid for each route
• Skin sensitisation hazard — uncured epoxy resin is a skin sensitiser; repeated contact can cause permanent allergic contact dermatitis
• Workplace exposure limits — no specific WEL for BADGE resin; amine hardener limits noted; guidance on managing the exothermic curing reaction
• CLP hazard classification — Irritant and Environmental hazard pictograms
• PPE requirements — including nitrile gloves, safety goggles and face shield for large-quantity mixing
• Emergency procedures — spillage response and fire precautions specific to uncured resin

Who Is This COSHH Assessment For?

This assessment is suitable for any workplace where epoxy resin is used, including:

• Electronics manufacturing and PCB encapsulation
• Aerospace and automotive composite manufacturing
• Marine hull repair and fibreglass lamination
• Construction and civil engineering — epoxy coatings and adhesives
• Workshop and fabrication environments using two-part epoxy

COSHH Compliance
