What is laser-bonded art, and how is it different from laser engraved art?
“Laser-bonded” is a term coined by LightWave Art to describe its unique, patent-pending process for utilizing light wave energy to permanently bond color-pigmented imagery to a variety of construction materials. To properly explain laser-bonded art, especially as it applies to the construction marketplace, it’s helpful to know a bit about laser engraving technology. Any image that can be scanned into the “brain” of our laser system can be permanently duplicated onto most materials used in residential or commercial building projects. In some cases the imagery is engraved into the material–hence the term “laser engraved” art. In other instances, color-pigmented imagery is bonded by the laser to the material–hence the term “laser bonded” art. In a sense, laser bonding is laser engraving taken to the next level. LightWave Art’s ability to produce very high-resolution imagery, in monochrome or full color, creates virtually unlimited design possibilities: ones that can turn ordinary buildi
