About Us

Engineering the world’s most precise filtration screens

Industrial filtration often fails for the same reasons: inconsistent apertures, materials that wear too quickly, and screens that lose accuracy under pressure. Over time, these small issues introduce instability elsewhere in the system – like going to sea in a leaky boat. ActionLaser exists to solve these problems at their source.

Using laser technology developed and patented through CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, we engineer stainless steel filtration screens with micron-level precision that remain stable and accurate through long production cycles.

Our laser drilled apertures are clean, uniform and precisely shaped, supporting smoother flow, reduced clogging and consistently high throughput. This level of control delivers longer operating life, predictable performance and clearer separation across a wide range of applications.

From plastics recycling and sugar processing to food production, mineral and chemical processing, and water treatment, ActionLaser screens deliver precision filtration in environments where performance directly impacts efficiency, yield, and long-term operational value.

Built on Australian innovation, trusted around the world

ActionLaser was created to solve a long-standing industrial challenge: how to produce filtration screens that stay accurate, resist wear and maintain their shape under operating conditions, unlike traditional chrome-nickel screens, and deliver consistent performance in demanding process environments. That challenge led to pioneering research in laser micro-perforation, which remains the foundation of our technology today. Through decades of refinement and investment in advanced optics and precision laser systems, we’ve continued to push the limits of what filtration screens can achieve.

Producers and OEMs across six continents rely on ActionLaser because our screens perform where precision is crucial. Whether improving flow in plastics recycling plants, supporting sugar and dairy operations, or enhancing separation in food, chemical and environmental processing, our technology delivers stable throughput, longer service life and dependable results. Customers around the world trust ActionLaser because our filtration solutions consistently resolve real production challenges and deliver measurable, long-term value.
