We recommend that you get your plastic for laser cutting from suppliers that specifically serve the laser cutting industry, such as:
These suppliers are familiar with laser cutting requirements.
- These suppliers usually have clear labeling on their websites regarding materials that are laser-compatible.
- These suppliers also sell some materials that are not laser compatible, i.e. sheets intended for rotary engraving (not laser-safe) vs laser engraving. ⚠️ Check the material type before you buy. ⚠️
We do not recommend that you buy plastic for laser cutting from general hardware or craft stores, e.g Bunnings or Spotlight. These suppliers are not familiar with laser safety requirements, and plastic from these suppliers cannot be guaranteed to be laser-safe.
