Laser Cleaning Wood

Laser cleaning of wood is an innovative method that offers precision, safety, and efficiency. Unlike traditional cleaning methods that can be abrasive or use chemicals, laser cleaning is non-invasive and preserves the integrity of the wood surface. The laser beam effectively removes unwanted substances like dirt, paint, or mold without damaging the wood beneath. It is particularly useful for restoring antiques, furniture, or artwork, where preserving delicate details is essential.
The precise control of laser intensity allows for gentle cleaning of wood, making it ideal for sensitive applications such as historical restoration or the preparation of wood surfaces for refinishing. Whether you need to remove varnish or clean mold, laser cleaning offers an eco-friendly solution by eliminating the need for harsh chemicals.
