The Ellex laser system performs posterior capsulotomy — a precise procedure used to restore clear vision after cataract surgery. These machines are installed in clinics across the world, assisting ophthalmologists in improving people’s eyesight every day.
Ellex forms part of Lumibird Medical, a global medical laser group dedicated to diagnostic and treatment solutions. Their focus is clear: equip healthcare professionals with reliable technology that supports consistent patient outcomes. The equipment is engineered for precision, control and repeatability in clinical environments.
As an Australian company, we are proud to contribute to equipment that supports medical technology of this calibre.
The timber bench surface supporting the machine needed more than a standard coating.
It required:
A durable hypo-allergenic polyurethane finish
A colour match to the machine housing
Metallic character with controlled depth
Resistance to wear, cleaning agents and daily clinical use
The finish had to perform consistently while maintaining a seamless visual alignment with the equipment.
Superior Timber Coatings worked in conjunction with Precision Wood Machining in Lonsdale, South Australia, to develop and formulate a dedicated system.
The result is now known as Ellex Grey — a unique blend of coloured polyurethane, silver metallic and specialised additives engineered for durability, stability and aesthetic integration.
Every project has its own technical and visual demands. When standard colours or systems are not suitable, formulation becomes essential.
Superior Timber Coatings are here to help with tailored polyurethane systems, colour development, performance specification and technical support from concept through to production.
