Sustainability: Why It’s Ideal to Laser Mark Cork

As a renewable raw material, cork is obtained from the bark of a tree, in a process that can be performed multiple times within a single tree’s life span. With its recyclable properties, cork is an environmentally friendly solution for many industries, with the construction industry being a prominent example.

Cork is also a durable water-resistant material that provides a high-contrast result when laser marked. Because of all of these properties, cork is an ideal material for laser engraving.

The Advantages of Laser Marking Cork

Laser marking cork serves two main functions for companies: traceability and branding. Some of the most commonly marked products include:

  • Coasters
  • Menus
  • Notebooks
  • Wine corks
  • Sandals

Laser marking cork products is an effective and stylish way of branding. For instance, coasters are popular souvenirs in the food and beverage industry, and are perfect for being marked with the logo of breweries and restaurants.

Such coasters are also popular in the crafting industry, as they allow for a level of personalization and customizability that both businesses and customers enjoy. In the wine industry, for example, companies will laser engrave cork coasters and menus to create a consistent brand identity.

Meanwhile, within the footwear industry, laser engraving cork sandals is an opportunity for both branding and design opportunities. Likewise, notebooks made of cork are often laser engraved for similar reasons.

In the construction industry, laser engraved cork offers an environmentally friendly solution as an insulator and as an external building material for houses. Many builders will engage in laser marking cork because of the traceability benefits it provides.

As you can see, laser marking cork is the clear choice for branding, incorporating design work, and increasing traceability when working with this diverse material.

Tips for Laser Marking Cork

While laser marking cork is a precise and effective process, it is important to be mindful of your laser frequency when you prepare to laser mark, as cork can be subject to charring. Clean lenses and reduced frequency settings will help to ensure a clean cut while engraving.
