Sparklike, a global leader in non-destructive gas measurement solutions for insulating glass units (IGUs), has announced the appointment of Sasu Koivumäki to its Board of Directors. The move marks a strategic step as Sparklike continues to strengthen its position in an IGU market increasingly focused on automation, verified performance, and consistent quality control.

Koivumäki brings decades of international experience in glass processing technologies, with a strong track record in operational leadership, commercial growth, and large-scale technology transformation. His career spans senior executive roles at Glaston Corporation, one of the world’s leading suppliers of glass processing machinery and solutions. During his tenure, he served as Deputy CEO and held leadership positions across operations, sales, strategy, and business development, playing a key role in scaling advanced manufacturing technologies across global markets.

“We are very pleased to welcome Sasu to Sparklike’s Board,” said Tapio Volanen, Chair of the Board. “His deep understanding of the global glass industry and his leadership experience in technology-driven organizations will be a strong asset for Sparklike, particularly as IGU manufacturers place increasing emphasis on automation, quality assurance, and verified performance.”

Commenting on his appointment, Koivumäki highlighted the growing relevance of Sparklike’s technology. As IGU manufacturers face higher performance requirements, tighter specifications, and increasing regulatory scrutiny, accurate and non-invasive gas fill verification has become essential for ensuring long-term unit performance and compliance.

“Sasu’s extensive background in glass processing solutions is a perfect fit for Sparklike,” added Atte Kuusisto, CEO of Sparklike. “His experience directly supports our mission to help IGU manufacturers ensure consistent quality and durability through precise, non-destructive gas measurement.”

Koivumäki’s appointment further reinforces Sparklike’s Board with deep expertise in strategy, advanced technology, and international market expansion, supporting the company’s continued global growth.
