Engravable Materials List
Aluminum
​
Aluminum is one of the most common marked substrates and is used in many industries. As a general rule, with lower marking strength, aluminum will turn white. Higher intensity laser settings provide a dark gray or charcoal color.
Painted & Anodized Aluminum
​
There are many types of coatings used to cure metals or to protect against harmful elements. Coatings, such as powder coating, are thicker and require higher laser settings to completely remove them. Other coatings, such as black oxide, are thin and designed only to protect the surface. Both coatings and paintings are ideal for laser marking and customization.
Copper & Brass
​
Brass and copper have high thermal conductivity and heat transfer properties. Their thermal properties are ideal for Fiber Laser metal marking because heat is dissipated rapidly. This reduces the impact of the laser on the structural integrity of the material. Copper and brass generally require testing before engraving due to these properties.
Wood
​
Laser engraving wood can either leave a surface mark or create a deeper textured engraving. We have experience in engraving cutting boards, cheese boards, and more. We also have the ability to cut designs out of wood up to 1/4" thick.
Yeti Engraving (Powder coated tumblers)​
​
Engraving through powder-coated tumblers such as YETI, RTIC, HYDROFLASK (TRADEMARK) creates a beautiful polished stainless steel look. Personalized tumblers let your logo shine and make great gifts for giveaways or gift shop merch. Individual personalized names are available at no extra charge.
Glass​
​
Laser engraving glass creates a frosted, slightly textured look. Engraving glasses or cups is a great way to personalize a product for customers or guests. We engrave wine, champagne, and liquor bottles for the perfect gift.
Steel & Stainless​
​
The laser marking process heats the metal surface, which causes the ambient air to oxidize to form back mark. There will be texture to the marking.
