The Spark M-20 is the world’s first portable methanol detector, delivering on-site results in two minutes with accuracy to 0.01% methanol. A Swiss-engineered laboratory in pocket format, developed with government institutions and renowned distilleries for spirits, perfumes and disinfectants.

Portable Methanol Detector

The EU, the USA and other countries enforce strict limits for methanol in beverages, hand sanitisers and air, because even small amounts of methanol can be fatal. Laboratory analysis, however, is expensive, time-consuming and requires trained staff. The Spark M-20 was developed together with government institutions and renowned distilleries to ensure maximum usability and quality.
