Regency Glass has integrated a Sparklike Laser Portable 2.2 into its quality control process. The device, purchased from Sparklike distributor Inagas, is designed to precisely measure insulating gas concentrations within IGUs.

Deb Fitzmartin, chief quality officer at Regency, commented:

“At Regency, we don’t rely on assumptions. We want data to support our claims, to be able to prove we are exceeding the standards and delivering exceptional quality, every time.

“Using the Sparklike Laser Portable 2.2 alongside two Sparklike Handheld devices allows us to understand and monitor gas concentration on a day-to-day basis, at the end of the production line. We’re able to provide real evidence, giving our customers peace of mind and assurance that they are buying quality when they buy from us.

“Our gas concentration levels exceed the minimum industry standard, across the entire product range,” continued Deb. “We spot check test more often than the regulations suggest and our quality department will continue to work to that level of detail, as we continue to expand.

“The Sparklike Laser can measure the gas concentration levels in units made with thick laminated glass, coated glass, standard triple glazed units as well as our brand-new product, Regency Triple. It is easy to use, provides immediate results and can provide a data log so has really complemented our manufacturing and quality check processes.”

Chris Kemp, sales director at Inagas, said:

“Regency Glass is a shining example of an IGU manufacturer committed to producing quality as standard. Their customers have come to expect their units to be the highest standard and the Sparklike Laser Portable 2.2 will provide them with the assurance they are delivering on those expectations.

“The recent period of investment at Regency has seen their operation drastically upscale, but it’s very apparent that as things evolve, the level of detail that goes into manufacturing each of their units remains the same.”
