FAQ
How does laser cleaning work?
Laser cleaning works according to the principle of pulsed laser ablation. We add a lot of energy to the surface in the form of light in a very short period of time (nanoseconds). The light will be absorbed by the contaminant, and will reflect on the substrate. In between the substrate and the contaminant, a layer of gas will be created which pushes the contaminant away from the substrate. Minimal evaporation is possible. The combination of these processes is called ablation.
Which materials can be cleaned with a laser?
The results are particularly good with metal substrates, with a variety of alloys, such as aluminium, machine carbon steel, copper, stainless steel, etc. Mineral substrates like stone and concrete can be cleaned as well, but the results will differ depending on the contaminant. Wood and other heat absorbing materials like plastic are not recommendable.
Which substances can be removed with laser cleaning?
We can remove a lot of organic and anorganic substances with a laser, such as grease, oxide, coatings (paint), etc. Do you have a specific question or a challenging project?

Does laser cleaning damage the substrate?
No, one of the big advantages of laser cleaning is that it doesn't damage the substrate when used correctly. You can clean your delicate and expensive substrates without having to worry.
