In Casio’s context it means “molded plastic” and is used to imply good ergonomic fit.

In the larger scope, resin is plastic in an unfinished state. For wearables, it’s commonly used as a marketing term to imply it fits well.



Thanks.

I had wondered if it meant some kind of thermoset / epoxy cure-in-a-mold, to set it apart from injection-molded thermoplastic.

Weird wording. What other kind of plastic is there than 'molded'?
