About Us

sglux, founded in 2003, is a team of scientists, engineers and production, quality & logistics professionals. Together we have over 140 years of experience in the field of development, production and calibration of UV measuring components. We are united by the passion to produce simply good UV sensors – since a couple of years we do this in our own building in Berlin-Adlershof, Germany’s biggest science and technology park. Our customers appreciate our expert knowledge, our strong customer orientation and our solution expertise in the value chain of the UV measurement. Our range is a modular conception and extends from the production of SiC photodiode wafers, SiC photodiodes and SiC hybrids (TOCONs) to IoT ready sensor probes, radiometers and PTB-certified calibration standards.

This worldwide unique modular conception allows to produce customized concepts also in low quantity without additional costs or extended delivery time. Our company is ISO 9001 certified. We do our calibration work according to the guidelines DAkkS-DKD-MB-3 and ISO 17025.
