Sustainable Laser Cutting: Discover Our Renewable Materials

Sustainability is no longer a trend, but a necessity. At Het Laser Lokaal, we understand the growing need for environmentally friendly solutions in the creative and manufacturing industry. That's why we offer a selection of (semi-)renewable materials that are perfect for laser cutting. In this article, we'll guide you through our sustainable material options and show you how to create responsibly without compromising on quality or aesthetics.

What Are Renewable Materials?

Renewable materials are raw materials that can be reproduced within a relatively short period, such as bamboo or hemp. Semi-renewable materials contain a mix of renewable and recycled components. The use of these materials contributes to reducing the ecological footprint and supports a circular economy.

Our Sustainable Materials Highlighted

Bamboo Caramel Side-pressed

Bamboo is a fast-growing plant known for its durability and strength. The sheet material is produced CO2 neutrally. Our bamboo sheets are composed of cross-laminated strips, resulting in a uniform appearance with minimal knots. The warm caramel color and side-pressed finish give the material an elegant look. Bamboo is ideal for visible components such as casings, cover plates, decorative elements, and furniture construction.

Biopanel

Biopanel is an innovative sheet material made from industrial hemp and organic PLA. It is an excellent bioplastic alternative to traditional materials such as Trespa and Dibond. Biopanel is fully biobased, circular, and has a significantly lower CO₂ emission during production. The material is suitable for various applications, including interior design and signage.

Vibers Bioplastic

Vibers bioplastic is produced from elephant grass, PLA, and starch derived from residual streams of the potato processing industry. The material has similar properties to foamed PVC and is available in natural, white, and black variants with a visible fiber structure. Vibers is recyclable and theoretically industrially compostable, although certifications are still pending. It is suitable for applications such as displays, signage, and interior projects.

Solid Grey Cardboard

Our solid grey cardboard is made from 100% recycled paper fibers. It is a structural material widely used in displays, promotional items, packaging, and 3D models. Thanks to its fibrous structure, the cardboard is relatively inexpensive and ideal for prototypes.
