The choice of laser material is the key to achieving perfect results with your laser processing. Whether you work in industry, advertising or crafts, it is important to know which laser material suits your laser machine and your specific needs. It is also important to know which materials you should avoid to ensure a safe and efficient process. We offer a wide selection of high-quality materials from the leading international laser manufacturer Trotec – Wood, acrylic, metal, glass, paper and more!
Wood is a versatile material that is perfect for signs, personal gifts and interior design, as well as for architectural 3D models in MDF, for example.
Our plastic sheets are perfect for laser engraving and laser cutting with a laser machine, where you can create everything from signs to 3D models.
Anodized or color-anodized aluminum is suitable for engraving with both CO2 lasers and fiber lasers, and typical applications are nameplates, advertising signs and ID tags.
Trotec laser materials are carefully selected and manufactured to deliver exceptional results with sharp engravings and clean cuts, ensuring a durable end product.
With materials such as wood, acrylic, metal, glass and paper in different colors, sizes and thicknesses, you will always find something to suit your projects – whether it is signs, interior design or customized gifts.
All Trotec materials are designed to work perfectly with modern laser machines, ensuring smooth processing and maximized productivity.
Yes, but the choice of laser is crucial. Fiber lasers are best suited for metals, while CO₂ lasers require coated or anodized metals to produce visible results. UV lasers also work on some metals with high precision.
Using the right materials ensures a high-quality finish, efficient process, and minimizes the risk of machine damage or unhealthy fumes. It also makes your end products more professional and durable.
No, only certain types of plastic such as acrylic (PMMA), polycarbonate and polyamide are suitable for laser processing. PVC should be avoided as it emits toxic gases.
Thicker materials require more laser power and slower processing. If the material is too thick for your laser's capacity, it can result in uneven cuts or poor engraving.
Most woods work well with lasers, but some, such as treated woods or plywood with glue containing formaldehyde, can emit harmful fumes. Always use ventilation when working with wood.
Lasers can be used on a variety of materials such as wood, acrylic, paper, leather, glass, plastic, and some metals. However, it is important to choose materials that are compatible with your laser type (e.g. CO₂, fiber, or UV laser) to achieve the best results.
Materials containing PVC or chlorine-based substances should be avoided as they can emit hazardous gases that are harmful to both the operator and the laser machine. Metals with reflective surfaces, such as untreated aluminum, are also a problem as they reflect the laser beam back into the machine, which can damage the laser head. Instead, metals that are treated or painted should be used for best results.

Laser materials are materials that are specifically adapted to be processed with laser beams, whether for engraving, marking or cutting. These materials are designed to withstand high heat and intense light pulses without deforming or damaging them, making them ideal for precise and permanent markings.
Laser materials are used in a variety of industries and applications, and their flexibility makes them a popular solution in many areas. Some examples of industries where laser materials are used include:
By choosing the right laser material for your business, you can ensure that your products have a professional and durable finish. Laser materials provide precise and permanent engravings, without the need for chemicals or tool wear. In addition, laser technology is incredibly fast and efficient, allowing you to produce in larger volumes without compromising on quality.
Investing in high-quality laser materials also gives you the opportunity to offer more applications and solutions to your customers. From exclusive details on jewelry to precise industrial markings – laser materials can be customized to your unique needs and give you a clear competitive advantage in the market.
Whether you are looking for materials for industrial production or to create creative DIY projects, the right choice of laser materials is crucial to achieving the best results.
It is also important to know which materials should not be processed with a laser, as this can lead to harmful results for both you and your machine. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is an example of a material that should never be used with a laser, as when heated it releases toxic chlorine gases that can be dangerous to both people and machines.
Metals with reflective surfaces, such as untreated aluminum, are also a problem as they reflect the laser beam back into the machine, which can damage the laser head. Instead, metals that are treated or painted should be used for best results.
