Warm greetings to you from the Labino team, the global leader in high quality UV Inspection lights and measurement instruments.

“Amongst our many repeat customers are some of our largest competitors”
Amongst our many repeat customers are some of our largest competitors. That by itself puts an end to the discussion of innovation and leadership in this segment, terminologies so loosely used these days. Each time a Labino distributor sends us a purchase order or a purchase request, from a competitor, we share it with all Labino staff and our associates to remind us who we are. The company that leads the world in Ultraviolet inspection equipment. The library is full.

Over the years, Labino raised the bar with products of uncompromising quality and reliability that are in compliance with a wide range of Industry standards such as ASTM E3022-18 and ISO 3059-12, as well as PRIMES requirements such as Rolls-Royce RRES 90061, Airbus AITM6-1001, USAF, The Boeing Co., Pratt & Whitney.
If you are the owner of a Labino UV LED light or UV meter you are welcome to visit us and take a tour to see where your equipment has been designed, where it has been built, but most important of all, where and how it has been tested to comply with the standards listed above. We do not just say we comply, we show we comply and we are not afraid to show it, in your presence.
“created a unique infrastructure to test, and provide accurate test reports and certifications, for every single UV LED light and UV meter”
Labino was part of the ASTM task group that authored ASTM E3022-18 in 2015. Following the adoption of ASTM E3022-18, which has since gained widespread acceptance and developed into a global benchmark for UV LED light reporting and certification, Labino has created a unique infrastructure to test, and provide accurate test reports and certifications, signed by qualified engineers, for every single UV LED light and UV meter it manufactures, in accordance with the pledged standards.
We do not just hand out certificates, we provide the underlying data unique to each UV LED light on a test report. A test report shows that results are within the allowable limits, set by the pledged standards, and proves that each unit has been tested to comply. This reporting is a requirement by ALL published standards.
We do not just say we are capable, we prove we are capable through our frequent audits and unmatched certifications that are available to you in the most transparent way – DNV audits us for ISO 9001-2015, Intertek audits us for our Explosion Proof and UL products, SWEDAC audits us for our ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration laboratory.
“we provide the best warranty terms in the industry, demonstrating our commitment to innovation and quality”
We do not just say our products are of top quality, we provide the best warranty terms in the industry, demonstrating our commitment to innovation and quality. We offer 3 year warranty on our stationery lights and 2 year warranty on our new generation handheld lights. We dare you to compare.
Do not take “trust me” for an answer from anyone, ask questions, protect your investment. The amount of unqualified products in the industry is significant, especially the ones coming from low cost countries. At Labino, we identified over the years a number of products that claim fake certifications, from fake explosion proof products to fake ASTM E3022-18 certificates.

Presently, Labino contributes with its technical expertise to ASTM Subcommittee E07.03 on Liquid Penetrant and Magnetic Particle Methods. The technical contact and coordinator of the upcoming “Standard Practice for Calibration of UV Radiometers and Photometers Used in Fluorescent Penetrant and Magnetic Particle Testing” are members of the Labino R&D team. Labino AB is the only UV Meter OEM today, amongst all US distributed OEM brands, that is an accredited ISO/IEC 17025 calibration laboratory with scope in UV and White Light Calibrations. Another first from Labino. All our UV meters come calibrated with a calibration certificate, at no extra cost, by our ISO/IEC 17025 calibration lab.

“Labino is financially a very sound company”
As many companies in our industry failed during this COVID-19 crisis, we are frequently asked by clients if Labino is at any risk. I would like to assure our worldwide clientele that Labino is financially a very sound company and there is no issue of viability. No banker has set foot at Labino the last 10 years. Labino has been profitable every single year the last 20 years on record, even during the 2008 financial crisis. I, my husband and partner Marios Athanasiadis, our four children, will be here to service you for many years to come.
