Precision Sensors for Process and Lab Applications

Metroglas develops and manufactures standard and custom electrochemical and optical sensors, such as pH electrodes, and specialty glass components for demanding laboratory and process applications.
How we do it

Your Trusted Partner in Sensor Technology

Metroglas combines modern automation manufacturing with deep expertise in traditional glass craftsmanship to produce high-precision, reliable sensors and scientific glass components.

Our core strength lies in the controlled production of critical sensor components. All of our pH sensors feature membranes manufactured according to proprietary glass formulations, developed and refined to ensure optimal measurement performance, stability, and durability.

To maintain this level of precision and consistency, we train our glassblowers in-house, preserving specialized craftsmanship while aligning it with industrial production standards.

This unique combination of engineering-driven design and controlled glass manufacturing enables us to deliver:

  • consistent, high-quality sensor performance
  • precise control over critical measurement components
  • complex custom geometries and miniaturization
  • scalable and repeatable production
