LASER CLEANING
How It Works
How It Works
Laser cleaning effectively removes surface contaminants by directing a focused laser beam onto a targeted area to ablate unwanted material.
Your Top Choice for Surface Preparation
Laser cleaning removes coatings and contaminants like rust while leaving the underlying substrate intact. If you are looking for a deep clean, precision, and time efficiency while also ensuring environmental responsibility and human safety during your operation, laser cleaning is the solution for you.

What is Silicosis?
According to the American Lung Association, silicosis is caused by breathing in silica, a mineral found in sand, glass, and other rock-type materials. These materials are often used as abrasive additives in sandblasting. When propelled at high speeds onto a surface for cleaning, silica particles become airborne, posing health risks for sandblasting workers and others present. Prolonged inhalation of silica dust can cause lung inflammation and, over time, lead to scar tissue formation called pulmonary fibrosis. This damage to the lungs is irreversible, though therapies can slow down the progression of the disease. Mild symptoms include coughing and shortness of breath. Complications include tuberculosis, lung cancer, chronic bronchitis, autoimmune disorders, and kidney disease.
While laser cleaning is much safer than traditional industrial cleaning methods like sandblasting, certain protective measures must be taken while operating the machinery. Be sure to protect yourself and those in your vicinity if you process a surface that contains hazardous particles like silica or lead.
