MATERIALS

For Laser Cutting and Engraving

GETTING STARTED

We can source a huge variety of materials for laser work, although we haven’t listed all of them here. Many of the materials listed below we may have in stock or can order in for you.

Due to safety and quality reasons, we prefer to source our own materials, but can work with client-supplied materials once we determine those materials are safe in the laser. We’ve spent considerable time sourcing the absolute best materials for laser work. Also, certain materials are extremely unsafe for laser cutting, marking or engraving. All of the materials that we stock have been tested and are safe.

 

Below is a list of some of the materials we can cut and/or engrave.

CUT is denoted by a “C”
