IRASORB laser marking additives

By Keeling & Walker Limited

Permanent, Precise, Sustainable. Laser marking on plastic components delivers permanent, abrasion-resistant identification without the limitations of traditional methods. Unlike ink-based printing, it's an environmentally responsible solution—eliminating solvent-based inks and generating zero waste. For most thermoplastics, Near-Infrared (NIR) laser marking requires a specialized additive that enhances the interaction between the laser and the polymer. This ensures sharp, high-contrast, and durable marks, even on challenging substrates. Why choose laser marking? - Permanent and tamper-resistant identification - Eco-friendly process with no inks - High precision for technical and decorative applications - Versatile for flat, curved, and 3D surfaces Applications across industries Laser marking technology is widely used for traceability, branding, and personalization in multiple sectors: - Animal identification - Automotive components - Decorative & branding - Packaging solutions - Personalization At Keeling & Walker, we manufacture the IRASORB range of laser marking additives, designed to deliver exceptional performance across a wide variety of polymer formulations. These additives enable consistent, high-quality results, meeting the demands of modern manufacturing for precision, durability, and sustainability.
