Construction

At BD Shades, we specialize in laser cleaning for surfaces such as brick, wood, sandstone, stone, plaster, granite, marble, and terrazzo. Our advanced technology gently yet effectively removes contaminants without damaging the material’s structure—delivering safe and precise results every time.

Industrial

With advanced laser technology, we provide precise corrosion removal from metal surfaces and effective surface neutralisation following welding processes. Laser cleaning is also highly efficient for eliminating grease, dirt, and other industrial contaminants, as well as for restoring anilox rollers and oxidized surface layers. Our methods are material-safe and deliver long-lasting, high-quality results.

Restoration

We provide expert laser restoration services, specialising in the cleaning of sculptures, bas-reliefs, entrance portals, epitaphs, and other sacred artifacts. Using advanced laser technology, we ensure precise, safe, and gentle treatment even on the most delicate surfaces.

Automotive

We offer specialised laser cleaning services for the automotive industry, including the removal of rust, old paint, and oil residue from various surfaces. Our laser technology enables thorough cleaning of components such as the engine and gearbox, ensuring their long-term performance. The laser perfectly prepares surfaces before painting and also removes carbon deposits from components.

Other

We specialise in restoring baking sheets, removing stubborn residues after fires, and thoroughly cleaning casting molds. Our laser graffiti removal is both effective and gentle, preserving the original structure of walls, while monument cleaning allows us to revive their authentic appearance without causing damage to the material.

OUR LASER TECHNOLOGY

Laser cleaning works through ablation — the removal of material using a focused laser beam. The laser’s energy heats the surface, causing impurities to evaporate or decompose, leaving the base material intact.

Because laser ablation is exceptionally precise, it allows full control over the depth and area being cleaned. This makes it the perfect solution for delicate or damage-sensitive surfaces that require the highest level of care.

Eco Friendly

Our laser requires only a standard 400v power outlet to power it, making it exceptionally convenient. The process doesn’t require the use of any chemicals or abrasives, making it environmentally friendly and causing no additional wear and tear on the surface.

Precise

The laser offers a wide range of laser beam modifications, allowing for precise adjustment of cleaning parameters to the specific material. This advanced laser cleaning technology effectively avoids mechanical damage to the surface while maintaining its structure and integrity.

Non-Invasive

With a range of laser settings, we can precisely target and separate specific material layers, ensuring consistent results. The laser can be directed at exact areas, allowing thorough and accurate cleaning. As a virtually contactless process, it minimizes the risk of damage while maximizing efficiency.

Safe

The laser beam we use is completely safe for materials, making it a superior alternative to traditional abrasive methods. With exceptional precision and effectiveness, laser cleaning is ideal for both delicate and demanding surfaces.

Painting Services

In addition to our laser cleaning services, BD Shades Ltd. undertakes painting projects across commercial, industrial, heritage, and agricultural sectors, ensuring services are delivered with a strong environmental ethos.
