We bring precision laser cleaning technology directly to your facility. No chemicals. No abrasive media. No secondary waste. Just clean surfaces, restored to their original condition.
Sandblasting, chemical cleaning, and dry ice blasting each carry hidden costs that compound over time. They damage substrates, create hazardous waste, and shut down your operations.
Abrasive media damages delicate substrates, generates silica dust, and requires costly containment and disposal. Manitoba silica regulations are tightening, driving up compliance costs.
Solvents and acids pose health risks, require special handling, and create VOC emissions. New Canadian VOC regulations effective 2024 restrict dozens of product categories, limiting your options.
Every hour spent on cleanup is lost production. Media cleanup, water runoff, and hazardous disposal add hidden costs to every job. Your team deserves better.
Our 300W JPT MOPA pulsed fiber laser vaporizes contaminants at the molecular level without touching the substrate beneath. Rust, paint, oil, grease, and oxidation are eliminated cleanly and precisely. See how laser cleaning works →

Non-destructive and precise. Clean only what needs cleaning. Delicate surfaces, threads, and machined tolerances remain intact.
No secondary waste. Contaminants vaporize into a minimal dry residue captured by HEPA filtration. No water, no media, no runoff.
Mobile and self-contained. We arrive with everything needed and run on portable generator power. Your operations keep running.

Arc Surface Solutions was founded on a simple premise: industrial surface cleaning deserves better than abrasive media and harsh chemicals. We saw Winnipeg manufacturers, fabricators, and fleet operators settling for methods that damage their equipment, create hazardous waste, and eat into production time.
We invested in professional-grade pulsed fiber laser technology and built a mobile service model that brings precision cleaning directly to the job site. No transport. No facility requirements. No downtime.
Our goal is to become the recognized name in laser cleaning across Manitoba, and to expand with multiple crews as demand grows. We lead with education, not discounts. We show up on time, document everything, and leave your surfaces cleaner than we found them.
Arc Surface Solutions was founded by Derek Mancini, a Winnipeg-based entrepreneur committed to bringing industrial-grade laser cleaning technology to fabricators and manufacturers across Manitoba.
Yes. Our 300W pulsed fiber laser is calibrated to vaporize contaminants without affecting the substrate beneath. Rust, paint, and grease absorb the laser energy while the underlying metal, stone, or composite remains untouched. We assess every substrate before cleaning begins.
Cleaning speed depends on the contaminant and substrate. Light rust and oxidation clean at 5 to 15 square feet per hour. Heavy rust at 1 to 5 square feet per hour. Paint at 3 to 10 square feet per hour. We provide realistic time estimates during quoting.
Both. For indoor jobs we set up a controlled laser area with barriers, signage, and HEPA fume extraction. Outdoor jobs require appropriate containment. We follow ANSI Z136.1 safety standards on every site regardless of location.
We are based in Winnipeg and service the surrounding region. Travel within the city is included. Jobs outside Winnipeg may include a travel fee based on distance. Contact us with your location for details.
On a per-hour basis laser cleaning costs more. But when you factor in the total cost of sandblasting, including abrasive media at $75 to $600 per day, containment setup, hazardous waste disposal, and equipment downtime, laser cleaning is frequently the lower total cost. We are happy to walk through a comparison for your specific job.
None. We arrive with a portable Honda inverter generator that powers the laser system independently. If your facility has 120V or 240V single-phase power available, we can use that instead. Either way, no special electrical setup is required.
Laser cleaning is a non-abrasive surface preparation method that uses a focused pulsed laser beam to vaporize rust, paint, oil, grease, and oxidation from metal and other surfaces. It removes contaminants without chemicals, abrasive media, or secondary waste, leaving the underlying substrate untouched.
Laser cleaning removes rust, paint and coatings, oil and grease, oxidation, weld discoloration, graffiti, and other surface contaminants from metal, stone, and composite materials. It is widely used in welding and fabrication, industrial equipment maintenance, fleet restoration, and commercial kitchen equipment cleaning.
Laser cleaning is often better than sandblasting because it produces no abrasive media, no hazardous waste, and no secondary cleanup, and it does not damage the underlying substrate. It also allows equipment to be cleaned in place with less downtime. Sandblasting can be more cost-effective for very large surface areas, so the best choice depends on the job.
