- wood, wooden materials - ex. MDF
- polymers - ex. polyurethane, polyamide, glastherm, pcv, vinyl, Plexiglas, Kevlar, Teflon, carbon
3. Environmentally friendly
Because water cutting technique is a method without using chemical agents it provides that production is environmentally-friendly, which is essential for many companies.
