spill-resistant

Hard to overturn

Spill-resistant describes materials or designs that prevent or minimize damage from liquid spills.

A spill-resistant keyboard can survive a knocked-over coffee cup.

The term suggests protection against accidents rather than complete immunity—unlike waterproof, it doesn't promise to withstand submersion: The spill-resistant fabric wiped clean easily.
