What We Do

OUR SERVICES

Advanced laser cleaning technology applied across six core service areas — each delivering chemical-free, non-contact, precision results on metal, stone, concrete, and composite surfaces.

Rust Removal
01
Eliminate corrosion at the molecular level

RUST REMOVAL

Laser rust removal uses concentrated photonic energy to ablate iron oxide from steel, iron, and alloy surfaces — without touching the base metal. The result is a clean, profiled surface ready for coating, welding, or use.

  • Removes all grades of rust — surface, pitting, and scale
  • No abrasive media or chemical runoff
  • Substrate remains dimensionally intact
  • Ideal for precision components and structural steel
  • Faster than sandblasting on complex geometries

Applications

Structural steelPipelinesTanks & vesselsMarine componentsAgricultural equipment

Paint & Coating Stripping
02
Layer-by-layer removal with surgical control

PAINT & COATING STRIPPING

Our laser systems can remove single or multiple layers of paint, primer, and industrial coatings with complete control over depth. Select exactly which layer to remove — without disturbing what lies beneath.

  • Selective layer removal — strip only what you need
  • Works on epoxy, polyurethane, powder coat, and more
  • No chemical strippers or hazardous waste
  • Preserves substrate geometry and surface finish
  • Suitable for aerospace, automotive, and industrial use

Applications

Automotive bodyworkAircraft componentsIndustrial machinerySteel structuresRail & transport

Graffiti Removal
03
Restore surfaces without damage or residue

GRAFFITI REMOVAL

Laser cleaning removes spray paint, marker, and adhesive residue from concrete, brick, stone, and metal — cleanly and completely. No pressure washing, no chemical solvents, no surface erosion.

  • Effective on all paint types including aerosol and enamel
  • Safe for porous surfaces like brick and sandstone
  • No water, no chemicals, no secondary contamination
  • Leaves no ghost marks or surface staining
  • Fast mobilisation for urgent restoration

Applications

Building facadesConcrete wallsBrick & stoneMetal shuttersPublic infrastructure

Monument & Heritage Restoration
04
Precision cleaning for irreplaceable surfaces

MONUMENT & HERITAGE RESTORATION

Heritage structures and monuments demand the highest level of care. Our laser systems deliver controlled, non-contact cleaning that removes biological growth, pollution deposits, and staining — without any risk to the original material.

  • Approved for use on protected and heritage-listed structures
  • Removes lichen, algae, soot, and atmospheric deposits
  • No vibration, no mechanical contact, no water damage
  • Adjustable power for the most delicate stonework
  • Fully documented process for heritage compliance

Applications

Stone monumentsMarble & graniteSandstone facadesBronze sculpturesHistorical buildings

Industrial Coating Removal
05
Prepare surfaces for re-coating with zero contamination

INDUSTRIAL COATING REMOVAL

Before applying new coatings, the surface must be perfectly clean and profiled. Laser preparation removes old coatings, oxidation, and mill scale — leaving a chemically clean surface with the ideal anchor profile for adhesion.

  • Achieves Sa 2.5 / Sa 3 cleanliness standards
  • Creates consistent surface profile for coating adhesion
  • No chloride or abrasive contamination
  • Reduces coating failure and rework costs
  • Faster than blast cleaning on complex shapes

Applications

Weld Preparation & Post-Weld Cleaning
06
Clean welds start with a clean surface

WELD PREPARATION & POST-WELD CLEANING

Laser cleaning removes oxides, heat tint, and weld spatter from stainless steel, aluminium, and other alloys — restoring corrosion resistance and surface appearance without mechanical abrasion or chemical passivation.

  • Removes heat tint and oxidation from weld zones
  • Restores passive layer on stainless steel
  • No risk of cross-contamination from abrasive media
  • Suitable for food-grade and pharmaceutical environments
  • Precise control around weld seams and HAZ

Applications

Stainless steel fabricationFood & beverage equipmentPharmaceutical plantPressure vesselsArchitectural metalwork

The Process

HOW LASER CLEANING WORKS

01

Assessment

We evaluate the surface, contaminant type, and substrate to select the correct laser parameters.

02

Calibration

Power, frequency, and scan speed are dialled in on a test area to confirm the optimal settings.

03

Cleaning

The laser beam ablates the target layer — vaporising contaminants without touching the substrate.

04

Inspection

The cleaned surface is inspected and documented. Ready for coating, welding, or immediate use.
