DESCRIPTION

Laser Photonics makes industrial laser cleaning and surface preparation systems under its CleanTech Laser Blasting brand, which uses high-powered fiber lasers to remove rust, paint, and coatings from metal, concrete, and other surfaces. The product line spans handheld units, enclosed cabinet systems, large-format automated systems, and AI-enabled robotic cells — covering applications across automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, defense, and heavy industry. The company sells capital equipment directly to U.S. customers through its own sales force and globally through distributors, targeting government and military customers, Fortune 1000 industrials, and small-to-medium businesses. For the small business segment, Laser Photonics runs a Service Partner Network, supporting entrepreneurs starting mobile laser cleaning operations and charging lead-generation fees in return. Beyond laser cleaning, Laser Photonics has expanded through acquisitions: Control Micro Systems adds laser systems for pharmaceutical tablet micro-drilling, and Beamer Laser adds fiber laser marking systems for traceability and serialization used by Fortune 100 customers. The company is also jointly developing a directed-energy anti-drone defense system, though that program is early-stage. Laser Photonics is vertically integrated, designing and manufacturing its own systems in-house, which it argues allows competitive pricing and quality control. The company is small and still scaling, and has funded growth primarily through repeated equity and debt financings rather than internal cash flow.
