Laser Photonics Corporation (LPC), a leading global developer of CleanTech laser systems, emphasizes the significant applications of its industrial laser systems in the garment manufacturing industry. Laser Photonics’ systems provide garment industry professionals with a user-friendly, ethical, cost-effective, and time-efficient solution for various garment creation and finishing processes. Laser techniques offer flexibility in design and operation, with additional benefits like reduced product damage risk, minimal consumable use, and no issues with toxic byproduct disposal.
Wayne Tupuola, CEO of Laser Photonics, acknowledges the growing concern among consumers about the fashion industry’s environmental impact. He states, “Manufacturers and brands are enhancing their ESG standards, identifying CleanTech and laser systems as cutting-edge solutions to reduce pollution and resource use while improving efficiency and safety.”
Crucially, laser processes eliminate exposure to harmful substances and inhalants, common in methods like abrasive blasting or wet chemical processing, known to impact workers’ health. The toxic nature of these methods has drawn increasing scrutiny from organizations like the EPA.
According to an article in the International Journal of Interdisciplinary Research, “In garment manufacturing, lasers have a wide range of successful applications.” The authors emphasize that garment manufacturers globally should leverage laser applications to enhance product competitiveness.
