GLASSGUARD
GlassGuard® is Europe’s largest manufacturer of fragment retention safety lamp coatings, providing unique protection against glass contamination from accidental lamp breakage.
GlassGuard manufacture an extensive range of industry compliant lamps designed to provide the highest level of protection for the food production, pharmaceutical, hotel and catering industries as well as public areas such as schools, leisure centres and hospitals.
Established in 1976, the company originally manufactured and distributed reprographic lamps for the printing industry. The business was founded on innovation, using existing technology and resources. Today, we continue to deliver a first class service based on the same principles.
More and more lighting architects are now specifying GlassGuard BlackBand® as a solution for businesses wishing to eliminate the risk of glass contamination.
All GlassGuard BlackBand® coated lamps meet the requirements of the British Retail Consortium (BRC), International Food Standard (IFS) and all other hygiene and safety audits within the agricultural, food processing, packaging and pharmaceutical industries.
A simple mishandling accident can result in thousands of glass particles being spread over a wide area causing potential contamination and even injury. GlassGuard BlackBand® fragment retention lamps eliminate this risk as they provide protection during and after installation, removal and disposal.
