These stones are particularly good for engraving

Slate, basalt, marble and granite - all of these stones can be designed very well using laser engraving.

With granite, however, the final result depends on the color and structure of the stone.

The surface of the stones should always be as smooth, even and polished as possible. The engraving is also most visible on dark natural stones.

Personalization with a picture, saying or photo

Whether it's a gravestone, floor tile or stone worktop - you can have a saying, quote, symbol, ornament or inscription engraved on it.

But A photo can also be engraved - You have probably already seen this on some gravestones. If you would like to have a photo engraved on your stone products, this is more difficult than a saying. This is because the surface condition of the materials is very important here.

In addition, for a good result, the photo resolution should be as high as possible and the stone should be as light or as dark as possible. This enhances the contrast.

How it's done: stone engraving with laser

Basically, minerals and stones are engraved in two different ways:

Laser engraving

Used for:

Deep laser engraving

Used for:

And for those who prefer a little more color: Varnishes or paints can be added afterwards.

How laser engraving works

Laser engraving is one of the applications that is somewhat simpler than sandblasting, for example. Why is that? The quick answer: For engraving with laser engraving, we need no stencils. This eliminates some work steps.

And this is how laser engraving works: The Surface of the stones is slightly melted and then removed. The finer-grained and more even the materials are, the better the result.

Whether for signs, gravestones or gifts: a beautiful laser engraving result is usually best achieved on large stone surfaces. Nevertheless, small stones are of course also suitable for stone engraving.
