Vasglass continues to push the boundaries of quality and innovation. Here’s how they tackled a key challenge in insulating glass verification.

VASGLASS, a family-owned business, the biggest in Greece glass processing since 1965, it is renowned for its high-quality architectural and marine glass solutions. With a commitment to quality and reliability, VASGLASS operates under both European, North American & Canada norms and guidelines, reflecting the high standards through which it operates. Their expansive industrial base, coupled with state-of-the-art equipment and innovative processing techniques, allows the manufacturing of valued glass products.

The Challenge

Vasglass’s commitment to delivering superior products led to a unique challenge: ensuring precise gas filling levels in their IGUs. A customer required reliable verification of insulating gas levels for a project. This demand exposed the limitations of Vasglass’s Sparklike Handheld gas measurement device, which was used daily but lacked the capability to measure triple-glazed units.

With rising demand for precision and quality control, Vasglass sought a more advanced solution to meet these needs while upholding its commitment to excellence.

The Solution

In 2024, Vasglass made a strategic decision to invest in the Sparklike Laser Portable (LP). This device provides non-invasive gas measurement capabilities from double and triple units with coating and lamination, ideal for ensuring the accuracy and quality of IGUs without compromising their integrity. With the new device Vasglass is able to continue to measure IGUs fast and provide proof to their customers about the product quality and in the same time be sure that the gas fill works properly.

Seamless Implementation and Training

In January 2025, Sparklike’s Sales Manager, Antti Koski, conducted in-person training at Vasglass’s facilities. During the session the Vasglass team, led by Quality and R&D Manager Giannis Nikolias, quickly mastered its operation.

“The training provided by Sparklike was thorough and effective. Our team feels confident in using the Laser Portable to maintain the high standards our customers expect,” said Giannis Nikolias.

The Outcome

The Sparklike Laser Portable now supports Vasglass’s quality assurance processes, allowing the company to meet customer demands with greater accuracy and confidence. The device ensures compliance with industry standards and supports Vasglass’s commitment to delivering premium IGUs for both domestic and international markets.
