Vape Guardian has solved the false-alert problem plaguing vape detectors, cutting genuine vaping and related incidents by over 95% in under five weeks.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Southampton, UK – <\/span>Vape Guardian<\/span><\/a>, the UK-based, purpose-led safety technology company founded by Simon and Jean Hassett, today announced impact results showing that sites using its multi-sensor platform have reduced genuine vaping and related incidents by\u00a0<\/span>over 95% in under five weeks<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The results come as many organisations report that other brands of vape detectors have been rendered almost unusable by constant false alerts from aerosols, cleaning products and other air pollutants. In contrast, Vape Guardian\u2019s technology is specifically engineered to distinguish real vape events from everyday background aerosols, restoring confidence in monitoring and enforcement.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFacilities teams were telling us the same story all over the world: they installed vape detectors, got bombarded with false alerts from deodorant and cleaning sprays, and eventually had to mute or rip them out,\u201d said\u00a0<\/span>Simon Hassett, Co-Founder of Vape Guardian<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe built Vape Guardian to solve that problem first. If you can\u2019t trust the alerts, you can\u2019t change behaviour. Our data now shows that when alerts are accurate, vaping incidents fall fast \u2013 typically by more than 95% in just a few weeks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Tackling Hidden Vaping and Anti-Social Behaviour<\/b><\/p>\n

Vape Guardian is deployed across <\/span>schools<\/span><\/a>, workplaces and leisure environments where vaping, drug use and anti-social behaviour often go unseen – particularly in toilets, changing rooms, stairwells, back-of-house corridors and staff areas.<\/span><\/p>\n

The company\u2019s detectors combine vape and air-quality sensing with\u00a0<\/span>drug detection<\/b>\u00a0capabilities and\u00a0<\/span>sudden loud-noise alerts<\/b>, helping organisations identify potential anti-social behaviour or safeguarding concerns without using cameras or microphones. When threshold conditions are met, designated staff can receive real-time notifications via app, email, SMS or building management systems.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIndoor vaping isn\u2019t just a rule-breaking issue; in schools it\u2019s a safeguarding concern, and in workplaces it\u2019s a health, safety and fire risk,\u201d added\u00a0<\/span>Jean Hassett, Co-Founder of Vape Guardian<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBy bringing together vape, drug, noise and air-quality insights in a single platform, we give leaders and facilities teams a much clearer picture of what\u2019s really happening in their buildings, and where they need to act.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Designed for Overwhelmed Teams<\/b><\/p>\n

Recognising that many schools, facilities and security teams are stretched, Vape Guardian can be configured in different modes depending on capacity and risk profile.<\/span><\/p>\n
