Trotec Laser Introduces Eco-Friendly Alternative for Signage
Trotec Laser has launched TroWood Color, a pre-colored MDF material tailored for laser engraving, positioning it as an alternative to traditional plastic and acrylics in product personalization, signage, and décor.
Material Design and Laser Compatibility
TroWood Color features a flat MDF core coated on both sides with an opaque, vibrant lacquer. It is engineered for use with both CO₂ and diode lasers, ensuring precise cutting and clean engraving.
Durability and Appearance
- The lacquer coating resists chipping, creating smooth edges and sharp detail.
- Available in six vivid colors, it offers greater flexibility than typical lacquered MDF, which is usually limited to white and more susceptible to damage.
- Unlike many color-through plywoods, it provides bold and consistent color intensity across the surface.
- The smooth lacquer prevents engraving residue from embedding, allowing easy removal of dust.
"This new combination is designed to ensure precision cutting, clean engraving, and consistent colour intensity."
Author's summary: TroWood Color by Trotec Laser is a robust, vivid-colored MDF optimized for laser work, offering a durable, eco-friendly replacement for plastics and acrylics in signage and décor.
