Laser technologies for your industrial projects
A technology transfer centre founded in 1982, IREPA LASER helps manufacturers master laser technologies: bespoke process development, industrialisation, series production and team training.
We are your technical partner at every stage of your project
Our laser expertise
Mastered laser processes for the most demanding industrial applications
Laser welding
Produce high-precision metal joints with maximum repeatability and controlled thermal distortion.
Laser DED additive manufacturing
Manufacture or repair high-value metal parts with a throughput and flexibility that conventional processes cannot match.
Laser machining
Achieve extreme tolerances on your most demanding surfaces and materials: laser drilling, laser surface texturing and functionalisation, laser micro-cutting.
Process simulation
Optimise your laser processes before production with numerical simulation. Fewer physical iterations, compliant production from the very first part.
Laser safety
Audit, secure and bring your laser installations into compliance. Train your teams in risk management and regulatory obligations.
Over 40 years of laser expertise serving industry
Laser technologies are transforming industrial processes: high-precision joining, metal additive manufacturing, micromachining of advanced materials. Yet implementing them on a production line remains complex. It requires mastery of physical phenomena, materials and throughput constraints.
Since 1982, IREPA LASER has supported manufacturers from the R&D phase through to series production. We are not just laser process experts: we are solution creators. Our R&D activity enables us to develop new processes, overcome technological barriers and offer our customers industrial answers when standard solutions are no longer enough.
Every process we develop is qualified, documented and transferable to your teams.

From R&D to production: tailored laser support
IREPA LASER covers the entire life cycle of an industrial laser project. This continuity between innovation, industrialisation, production and training allows you to progress without any break in expertise or responsibility.
Laser solutions for precision industries
IREPA LASER operates in sectors where process performance is non-negotiable. Our sector expertise enables us to understand your material constraints, standards and certification requirements, so as to develop laser solutions that are genuinely suited to your industrial environment.
We work in particular in the following sectors :
The leading laser training centre in France
Every year, more than 1,300 engineers, technicians and industrial managers train at IREPA LASER. Our courses combine theory, hands-on practice on our industrial equipment and real-world experience.
Laser safety, laser welding, laser machining, additive manufacturing, applied metallurgy: our programmes cover all industrial laser technologies, for all levels.
A certified and recognised technology centre
IREPA LASER does not simply display its certifications. They reflect a commitment to quality that is embedded in all our activities.
Certified to ISO 9001:2015, our quality management system ensures the rigour and traceability of every service. As a recognised Centre de Ressources Technologiques (CRT – Technology Resource Centre), we are a leading partner for the transfer of laser technology to industry. As a founding member of the Institut CARNOT MICA, we actively take part in collaborative research at the highest level. Our training centre is Qualiopi-certified for training activities, guaranteeing the educational quality of our programmes.
IREPA LASER is a SCIC (Société Coopérative d’Intérêt Collectif – collective-interest cooperative company), a governance model that places the creation of industrial and societal value at the heart of our mission.
