Guaranteed compliance with Sparklike Laser

SafeGuard Glazing Supplies has invested in a Sparklike Laser Portable 2.2, to provide customers with ‘complete confidence’ in product performance, across the company’s entire IGU range.

Simon Welsh, operations director at SafeGuard, said: “As demand in the glazing market has evolved, so too has the complexity of the products being manufactured. Increasing volumes of laminated units, triple glazing, thicker specifications, and coated glasses cannot be tested using a handheld device. This meant that, despite our commitment to quality, certain products could not be independently verified for gas concentration.

“To address this, we turned again to our long-standing partner, Inagas, and invested in the Sparklike Laser Portable 2.2. This advanced device now allows us to test almost any type of insulating glass unit for gas concentration, providing complete visibility across the entire product range.

“For our customers, this means guaranteed compliance, absolute confidence in performance, and reassurance that every unit supplied meets the highest possible standards.

“The investment also forms part of a wider capital programme at SafeGuard, which includes the installation of a new Best Makina sealed unit line with gas press, a Bottero 548L combi automatic laminate cutting table arriving in December, and a second Best Makina sealed unit line with gas press scheduled for January 2026.

“With gas filling becoming increasingly automated, the Sparklike Laser Portable ensures that these processes remain perfectly calibrated and capable of delivering the consistency that customers demand.”

Chris Kemp, sales director at Inagas commented: “As the glazing industry is placed under increasing scrutiny to deliver on expectations, companies like SafeGuard are setting the standards – and setting them high!

“We’re pleased to have played a part in supporting them with their offline gas filling and gas measuring needs to date and we look forward to continuing that support into the future.”
