Selecting your timber option
Updated: Nov 9
Wondering which timber option is best for your product?
Laser engraving on various surface achieves various outcome. Below are our recommendations if you are considering Etching or photo engraving a product.
Eucalyptus
A popular material used. It is a pale light coloured and perfect for all types of artwork. However when engraving images, the wood grain / fibre will be slightly more prominent.
Tasmania Sassafras
The Tasmaina Sassafras is a clean light timber with a very slight yellow tone. Fantastic for all sorts of timber
design and most effective when engraving images (provides the clearest result)
Walnut
The Walnut is our dark timber alternative. They are great for all sorts of timber design and also very effective when engraving images.
Birch
It is a light / netural timber veneer. It is perfect for all types of artwork but not as prominat as Tassie Sassafras.
Bamboo
A popular material choice. It is a medium yellow to brown coloured timber perfect for text engraving or cut out artwork. When engraving images, the wood grain / fibre can be relatively prominent.
