Laser Cleaning
Non-contact, chemical-free surface cleaning using focused laser beams. Perfect for rust removal, paint stripping and precision surface preparation.
The Precision Alternative
Laser cleaning (also known as laser ablation) is a modern, environmentally-friendly method that uses focused laser beams to vaporise contaminants like rust, paint, oil and coatings directly off a surface. The base material — steel, aluminium, stone or wood — remains completely untouched.
Unlike traditional methods, laser cleaning uses no chemicals, no water, no abrasive media and leaves no secondary waste behind. It's a genuine dry, dust-collected process that's safe around electronics and delicate features.
How It Works
Selective Absorption
The contaminant layer (rust, paint, oxide) absorbs the laser's light energy while the base material below reflects or transmits it — so only the unwanted material is affected.
Rapid Vaporisation
The absorbed energy instantly heats the contaminant, converting it to gas or fine particles that are safely extracted by our fume capture system.
Adjustable Precision
Power, frequency, beam speed and width are all tunable — meaning we can clean steel, aluminium, plastics or coated substrates with exactly the right settings for each job.
What It's Ideal For
- Rust removal from automotive & industrial parts
- Paint & coating stripping (selective layer removal)
- Weld preparation on steel and alloys
- Mould & tooling maintenance in production
- Historical artefact & heritage restoration
- Oxide, oil & grease removal from metal
- Precision surface prep for bonding
- Aerospace, rail & marine component cleaning
Laser or Dry Ice — Which Do You Need?
We offer both because they're brilliant at different things. As a rule of thumb:
Choose Laser Cleaning For
- • Rust & heavy oxidation removal
- • Paint & coating stripping
- • Precision weld preparation
- • Historical & delicate restoration
Choose Dry Ice Blasting For
- • Oil, grease & grime removal
- • Large-area engine bays & chassis
- • Complex geometries with lots of nooks
- • Electronics & wiring-heavy areas
