Laser work in Eastern Cape

The Eastern Cape's laser work is anchored by the automotive industry in Gqeberha, Uitenhage and East London, where component suppliers order part marking, barcodes, jigs and fibre laser cut brackets. Coega's industrial zone adds more steel and plastics work. Away from the factories, game reserves and guesthouses order engraved signage and gifts, Jeffreys Bay and Port Alfred host weddings that need decor and favours, and Karoo sheep and Angora goat farms buy ear tags and branding irons. Schools in Makhanda and Gqeberha keep trophy and honours board makers busy. Laser shops and engineering works cluster in Gqeberha and East London, which serve the rest of the province.
