Laser engraving for creativity and customization

From hand engraving to laser engraving: a story of passion

Discover the inspiring story of Manon and Geoffrey, two engraving enthusiasts who have turned their hobby into a successful entrepreneurial adventure!

It all started in 2018 with Spoon and Co., a small business dedicated to selling personalized cutlery, which the couple found down at flea markets and engraved by hand.

In less than a year, their ambition grew, and they launched Ma Fabrique Perso , an online store for personalized objects with a click-and-collect service.

Armed with their self-taught skills and passion, Manon and Geoffrey have now mastered various personalization techniques to offer their customers quality products.

In this newsletter, find out how they have combined passion and innovation to redefine the personalization of objects with laser engraving!

???The challenges of object personalization: conquering an evolving market

Manon and Geoffrey quickly recognized the changing expectations of their customers, who increasingly wanted to choose their message to be engraved, as well as the growing demand for personalized objects.

To succeed in this competitive market, they realized the need to expand their product range while offering greater freedom of personalization!

To achieve these goals, the couple faced a triple challenge:

1?? Improve their productivity;

2?? Ensure the quality of their products;

3?? Stimulate their creativity.

The manual engraving methods used by Spoon and Co. were no longer sufficient. So they decided to invest in new tools, including a laser engraving machine (the first of many!) and turned to Gravotech to help them with the process.

They knew what they needed:

• To be helped in the choice of machines;
• Be trained in their use;
• Gain the autonomy to use the technology for their creativity;
• Have access to expert advice to guarantee aesthetic production and overcome technical challenges.

Despite many challenges, Manon and Geoffrey were determined to make Ma Fabrique Perso a reference in the field of object customization, driven by their passion and desire to evolve.

???Laser engraving solutions from Gravotech

Manon and Geoffrey have gradually equipped Ma Fabrique Perso with laser engraving machines, with the support of Gravotech for each model choice:

?? The LS900 Edge, with its large engraving area, allows them to personalize large objects, cut, and engrave in series. Its dual laser source gives them the flexibility to work on a variety of materials, including wood.

?? For even more productivity, they acquired the WeLase station. A compact machine, but one that, for example, reduces the stamping time for a small wooden train from 7 minutes (with their previous process) to just 20 seconds! Manon and Geoffrey have thus increased their production rhythm and gained time for other creations.

?? Last but not least, the LW2 allows them to engrave metal objects with precision, finesse, and speed, thus completing their offer.

Innovative solutions that have turned their passion into a thriving business!

A little anecdote: these machines have integrated so well into the Ma Fabrique Perso team that they even have nicknames!

??? Toward more complex and innovative object customization

?? Thanks to its new fleet of Gravotech machines, Ma Fabrique Perso is pursuing its goal of expanding its catalogue of objects and plans to invest in other markets and networks of stores, offering products with more complex personalization options.

?? Their mastery of laser machines and expertise in personalizing objects has allowed Manon and Geoffrey to stimulate their creativity. They combine engraving, UV printing, embroidery, and sublimation to create unique products!

?? Recognizing an opportunity in the BtoB sector, they also decided to put their expertise at the service of brands wishing to engrave their products. To support this new activity, Ma Fabrique Perso recently acquired an additional WeLase? station.
