With minimal ongoing maintenance and no consumables it helps to reduce the total cost of ownership. Along with this as the Laser doesn't use consumables, it makes the laser a more environmentally friendly product marking solution.
Laser marking works by first removing material from the area to be marked then it marks a fine groove into, resulting in an indelible mark.
There are numerous ways that a laser can permanently mark onto a product, including;
Etching
Ablation
Cutting
Carbonizing
The marking process can all be done at incredibly high line speeds without losing quality on the final mark.
Applications where the mark must be permanent (e.g. anti-counterfeiting, serialisation)
Industries where product presentation is critical (e.g. wine and premium packaging)
High-speed production lines where consumable costs need to be reduced

Laser branding and marking are used across a wide range of industries—from food and beverage packaging, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods, to industrial manufacturing and metals. Lasers can produce permanent codes, serial numbers, barcodes, logos, and detailed graphics on materials like glass, plastics (e.g., PET and polypropylene), metals, and cardboard. This makes them ideal for product identification, anti-counterfeiting, traceability, and brand protection.
Laser marking works by directing a focused laser beam onto the surface of the material to create a mark through processes like etching, ablation, or carbonising. The laser removes tiny amounts of material or alters it to leave a high-contrast, permanent mark. Because this process doesn’t require inks or consumables, it delivers clean, durable results even at high production speeds.
There are several laser marking technologies:
Yes. Laser systems are engineered for safe industrial operation and are typically enclosed with appropriate interlocks and controls. Because they don’t use inks, solvents, or ribbons, they reduce waste and ongoing consumable costs, making them a more environmentally friendly marking solution. The absence of chemical consumables also contributes to a lower total cost of ownership.
