Fun with Laser Tile


Every once in a while I come across a product that just impresses the heck out of me. Such is the case with Laser Tile. This product is specifically designed for laser engraving. It's available in two colors (Birch White and Vanilla Cream) and three different sizes: 4.25", 6" and 8". As you can see in the picture, the results are simply amazing. High resolution photos are perfectly captured.

What makes this product so different from standard tiles is the unique laser sensitive finish embedded into the tile itself. The satin finish is the only distinguishing characteristic that might keep you from mistaking it for a regular ceramic tile. Once engraved with the laser, a nice, richly detailed image is your reward!

Though I haven't tried it out yet, an Italian Laser Tile is also available. This comes in a nice earth tone and engraves with a Sepia finish.

The applications for this are endless. Imagine an 8' wall mural mounted above a luxurious spa tub, or accent tiles around a fireplace, or risers on a staircase. Hmmm...
