Specialised Laser Products Ltd (SLP) was formed in 1995 to initially support the Machine Knife industry in the South Yorkshire area with laser cutting services. SLP has since grown and acquired new premises and machines to enhance the service offered to customers.

SLP is run by owner and founder Duncan Proctor, an expert in the metal cutting services sector who has placed specialist knowledge, constant innovation, and customer service as the main reasons behind the growth of the business.

As it did so, SLP looked to use the latest advancements in laser cutting technology and invested in a new laser machine to ensure the company could maintain the service commitment to customers, improve quality and reduce lead times. This adoption of new innovation in the field became ingrained in the business philosophy and SLP continues to look at innovative ways to improve performance.
