Laser engraving on metal, wood and promotional gifts
Laser engraving uses a focused beam to remove or alter a controlled layer of the product surface. It creates logos, names and identification marks without adding printing ink. The visible result depends on the base material, coating and laser process: the same artwork can look different on bare steel, anodised aluminium, painted metal and wood.
What should you check before ordering?
The final colour comes from the substrate and coating, rather than a chosen Pantone ink. Wood grain and coating variation can affect contrast. Cylindrical products may need a rotary fixture. Supply personalised names and numbers in a checked list. The calculator covers laser engraving; mechanical or unusually detailed work requires a quotation.

Will an engraved logo have my brand colour?
Ordinary laser engraving does not reproduce a chosen Pantone ink colour. The contrast comes from the material or the removed coating. Select pad or UV printing when a specific printed colour is essential. For coated bottles and flasks, approve an example on the actual product before committing to a large order.
