BENEFIT 01
No damage
No contact, no abrasion. It does not wear the metal, does not deform thin aircraft aluminium and holds tolerances.
- No measurable loss of thickness
- Composites and anodised finishes
- Test patch before we operate
LASER & DRY ICE CLEANING · ON-SITE SERVICE
Light does the cleaning. The metal is never touched.
We remove rust, paint, grease and soot from aircraft and vessels. Two abrasive-free technologies: we pick the one the part calls for, and you never handle sand or grit.

01
The three benefits
Three reasons a shop moves from sandblasting to laser, in that order.
BENEFIT 02
No grit to clear
No sand, no grit, no strippers, no sludge. With laser the output is dust into the filter; with dry ice the pellet sublimates and only the removed coating is left to collect.
- Zero abrasive to dispose of
- No containment enclosure
- Other crews keep working nearby
BENEFIT 03
Less downtime, less disposal
The cost is not the machine hour, it is the shutdown and the hazardous waste. Less preparation, less masking and fewer hours with the line stopped.
- No hazardous waste handling
- Minimal masking
- Zone by zone, no full shutdown
02
Two technologies
Neither one touches the part with abrasive. We choose by contaminant, substrate and whether the equipment can be taken apart.
TECHNOLOGY 01
Laser cleaning
The laser pulse is absorbed by the coating being removed, not by the metal underneath. Layer-by-layer control and no blast media.
BEST FOR
TECHNOLOGY 02
Dry ice (CO₂)
CO₂ pellets that sublimate on impact: they lift grease and organic residue and then disappear. No water, no solvent, no media to collect.
BEST FOR
Dry ice needs ventilation: CO₂ displaces oxygen in a confined space. We bring extraction and check the area before starting.
03
Specialties
Two sectors with their own substrate, procedure and documentation requirements.
GANTRY LASER SYSTEM
SPECIALTY 01
Aeronautics
Paint stripping that leaves aluminium and composites untouched. Selective, layer-by-layer cleaning: the topcoat comes off and the primer stays if the procedure calls for it. No full-aircraft masking.

SPECIALTY 02
Marine
Rust and fouling on hulls, decks and structure. Paint-ready surface preparation, without the containment enclosure sandblasting requires.
Marine service →04
How it works
Four steps. None of them starts before a test patch on your own part.
-
On-site assessment
We visit the facility, measure the coating to remove and run a test on a sacrificial area.
-
Process and parameters
We decide laser, dry ice or both. Power, frequency and passes are set per substrate and recorded so the result repeats.
-
Execution
We work with filtered extraction at the point of contact. Confined area, no enclosure, no full shutdown.
-
Inspection and report
Surface verification plus a record of parameters, area treated and hours on site.
05
Laser, dry ice and sandblasting
The same surface-preparation job, three processes with very different consequences for the substrate, the facility and the budget.

ADJUSTED PER PART AND COATING
ADJUSTED PER PART AND COATING
| CRITERION | LASER CLEANING | DRY ICE | SANDBLASTING |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contact with the part | None. No abrasion | Soft pellet, non-abrasive | Continuous abrasive impact |
| Effect on substrate | No measurable thickness loss | No wear; watch thermal shock | Wear; deforms thin aluminium |
| Waste generated | Dust only, extracted and filtered | The removed layer only; CO₂ sublimates | Spent sand, grit and sludge |
| Containment | Confined area, no enclosure | Confined area; ventilation required | Containment enclosure |
| Masking | Minimal. Zone by zone | Minimal | Full masking |
| Consumables | None | Dry ice pellets | Abrasive, filters, nozzles |
| Layer selectivity | Layer by layer, tunable | Surface layer | All or nothing |
| 3-year cost | Lower: no abrasive, no disposal | Moderate: pellets only | Higher: consumable + disposal |
