Waterjet Cutting for Custom Flooring Inlay and Logo Designs

Though metal cutting discs have been the conventional choice for cutting stone, marble and tiles, these methods carry risks such as the material chipping or cracking. In applications such as decorative inlays on floors and walls, these conventional cutting methods lead to a lot of dust, noise and mess.

That’s precisely the reason why there is a growing inclination towards waterjet cutting methods. The growing demand is seen from real estate developers, architects and interior decorators. And, it’s not just flooring inlays that can be created using water jets—it is equally suitable for designing logos and custom decorative panels.

Hydro-Lazer, Inc. uses high pressure water jets to create intricate inlays using marble, granite, sandstone, glass, tiles or concrete. As a cold cutting process, waterjet upholds the structural integrity of the inlay materials, and cuts them to precise dimensions. This also eliminates the need for secondary corrective measures or finishing operations. All this translates into significant material savings for the customer.

Hydro-Lazer, Inc. has worked with leading educational institutions, science centers, military establishments, commercial establishments, and home owners to create flooring inlays from materials as diverse as:

  • Porcelain
  • Laminates
  • Rubber
  • Linoleum
  • Vinyl composition tiles
  • Slate tiles
  • Fritz tiles
  • Carpeting material…and more

The Hydro-Lazer, Inc. team can work with any design, and make custom changes as per your needs. We offer the best waterjet cutting craftsmanship to give your idea a tangible form. For more, please visit our website www.hydro-lazer.com. We are just a call or email away!
