The Sashmate Tools have come along way since the start at Glassex back in 2005 where just one product existed and was presented by both myself, my step father and father! It was an exciting time and we regularly had 10+ visitors crowded round our little 2 x 3 m stand trying to work out why they hadn’t thought of the idea. Years on, 5 new products, a Steel range, national awards and the recognition and recommendation of the industry later and the Sashmate tools have never been in such demand! February was an especially exciting time for us when we saw our 2000th set leave the stock room on its way to its new lucky owner. Read More

As the second company in the whole of Australia to currently use the Sashmate tools Alchin and Long but have an unfair advantage over their competitors?! Oh well!     Read More

Every sale means the world to Glazesafe, whether it has come from a sole trader, an SME or one of the most recognised names in the industry! Everest always seem to be one step ahead, whether it’s the profile/hardware they are using or the list of services they can supply (Triple Glazing to name just one big development). Although it has taken them 8 years since the launch of the Sashmate Tools we won’t hold that against them, late really is better than never… It is good to know that even the ‘big boys’ actually care about their worker’s safety and they have proved that by ordering a batch of Sashmate Steel Tools with the possibility that they will become standard in their company. Good on you Everest! Read More
