The biggest cost in steel cleaning isn’t the cleaning.
It’s the containment.
On commercial sites, blasting often brings:
• Full sheeting
• Dust control
• Clean-up
• Disruption to other trades
That’s where costs quietly stack up.
We’ve broken down how this impacts real projects and where laser cleaning changes the equation: https://lnkd.in/ek5CatrG

Laser Cleaning vs Grit Blasting: What’s the real difference in 2026?
Grit blasting has been the industry standard for decades.
But when you factor in:
• Containment requirements
• Abrasive media disposal
• Environmental reporting
• Downtime impact
• Labour overhead
• Substrate protection
The cost equation changes.
Laser cleaning eliminates secondary waste, reduces containment complexity and protects sensitive materials. Particularly in live industrial environments such as rail, manufacturing and infrastructure.
We’ve published a detailed UK-focused comparison covering:
• Cost structure
• Programme impact
• ESG considerations
• When each method is commercially appropriate
If you’re specifying surface preparation this year, it’s worth understanding where the shift is happening.
