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 eco-friendly solutions in the creative and manufacturing industries. That's why we offer a selection of (semi-)renewable materials that are perfect for laser cutting. In this article, we 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 resources that can be reproduced within a relatively short time, such as bamboo or hemp. Semi-renewable materials contain a mix of renewable and recycled components. Using these materials helps reduce the ecological footprint and supports a circular economy.
Our Sustainable Materials Highlighted
Bamboo Caramel Sidepressed
Bamboo is a fast-growing plant known for its sustainability and strength. The sheet material is produced CO2 neutral. Our bamboo sheets are composed of cross-laminated strips, resulting in a uniform appearance with minimal knots. The warm caramel color and sidepressed finish give the material an elegant look. Bamboo is ideal for visible components such as enclosures, cover plates, decorative elements, and furniture construction.
Biopanel
Biopanel is an innovative sheet material made from industrial hemp and biological PLA. It is an excellent bioplastic alternative to traditional materials like 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 the waste 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 for this are still lacking. 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 constructive material widely used in displays, promotional items, packaging, and 3D models. Due to its fibrous structure, the cardboard is relatively inexpensive and ideal for prototypes.
