Laser cleaning is a versatile service that has almost limitless applications. The key areas that this technology shines in the most is listed below

Rust, Corrosion & Oxides Removal

Exposure and age cause all metals to develop oxidised and corroded layers. Our method eliminates these deposits while leaving the underlying surface intact and environmentally unaffected.

Wood Preparation and Restoration

SURFIX enables the careful removal of paint, staining, and mould from detailed woodwork, preserving surface definition while preparing it for restoration.

Stone & Heritage Restoration

Pulsed laser systems provide a safe, non-contact solution for removing scale, surface degradation, coatings, and accumulated dirt or residues from precious stone and heritage artefacts.

De-Oiling

Engines, parts, and components can be cleaned using a non-destructive process in which oils are selectively vaporised by 1064 nm laser pulse energy, leaving the underlying surface unaffected. This is ideal for precision-machined components where abrasion is unacceptable.

Weld Cleaning

Laser cleaning is an effective solution for metal surface preparation, removing oils, grease, scale, hydrates, oxide layers, and shop primers to ensure optimal bonding and weld integrity. After welding, slag can be removed in a single pass, saving valuable time for fabricators.

Tool Cleaning

With finely controlled beam optics, our laser removes light to medium corrosion and a wide range of contaminants including oils, carbon, paint, and coatings. This precision makes it particularly suitable for cleaning around installed equipment and confined areas.

Heavy Machinery Maintenance

Pulsed lasers offer a safe, non-contact solution for eliminating oils, grease, paint, rust, oxides, scale, surface degradation, coatings, and residues from a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, and brass.

Fire Damage and Soot Removal

Laser cleaning is a highly effective solution for removing soot, carbon deposits, and other fire-related contamination. It can be safely used on steel structures, painted walls and doors, as well as stone and brickwork.

Graffiti Removal

Laser cleaning enables environmentally responsible graffiti removal without chemicals, making it well suited for councils and organisations working in sensitive or regulated areas.

Biomaterial Cleaning

Laser cleaning provides animal processing plants with an efficient sanitary cleaning solution, minimising downtime while safely removing biomaterial contamination.

Low-Disruption Surface Cleaning for Industrial Environments

Key Operational Benefits

  • Minimal downtime

  • No foreign media introduced 

  • Selective removal 

  • Non-contact process 

  • Reduced clean-up

SURFIX stands out by prioritising surface integrity and operational continuity, delivering controlled contamination removal without abrasive media, chemicals, or mechanical stress — making our approach well suited to active industrial and manufacturing environments.

Suitable for

  • Production line maintenance

  • Tooling, moulds, and fixtures

  • Pre-coating and bonding preparation

  • Electrical and sensitive components

How SURFIX Laser Cleaning Works

SURFIX uses pulsed laser energy to selectively remove surface contamination such as rust, paint, oxides, oils, and coatings.

The laser beam is absorbed by the contaminant layer, causing rapid heating and micro-ablation of that material. Because the underlying substrate reflects or dissipates the energy differently, it remains largely unaffected when the correct parameters are used.

Cleaning performance is controlled by adjusting power, pulse width, frequency, scan speed, and beam pattern, allowing precise control over removal depth and aggressiveness.

Laser cleaning is a dry, non-contact process that produces minimal secondary waste and requires no abrasives or chemical agents. This makes it suitable for industrial maintenance, restoration work, and surface preparation where material integrity must be preserved.
