Polymer Resin is a crucial element used in the production of Fabric, Plastic, and Rubber in Satisfactory. It's a by-product of oil and fuel production. Unfortunately, it can only be accessed once you are at or over Tier 5. You'll need a refinery to produce Polymer Resin in the game. Additionally, make sure to have a good enough supply of Crude Oil ready to maintain your production rate.

To increase your efficiency, set up a pipeline from an Oil Extractor to the Refinery to ensure a consistent flow of Crude Oil.

There are three recipes to get Polymer Resin in the game:

• Using X6 Crude Oil to get X4 Fuel and X3 Polymer Resin
• Using X3 Crude Oil to get X4 Heavy Oil and X2 Polymer Resin
• Using X6 Crude Oil to get to get X1 Polymer Resin

Once this is done, remove it via a Conveyor Belt, or it will disrupt your production line despite having a Refinery. You can connect a Conveyor Belt from the Refinery's output to a Storage Container to obtain your Polymer Resin. You can also enjoy coupons in exchange for the Polymer Resin if you send it to the 'Anti-Waste Effort for Stress-Testing of Materials on Exoplanets' (AWESOME) sink.

If you produce Fuel or Heavy Oil Residue, you will eventually obtain Polymer Resin, which you can use to produce Plastic, Rubber, and Fabric. Apart from Polymer Resin, you only need water to make any of the abovementioned products. Luckily, finding water is really easy throughout the game. To produce these products, follow this recipe:

• X1 Fabric - X1 Polymer Resin and X1 Water
• X2 Plastic - X6 Polymer Resin and X2 Water
• X2 Rubber - X4 Polymer Resin and X4 Water
