SHERIDAN, WYOMING - April 14, 2026 - Glartek, a developer of AI-native Environment, Health, Safety, and Quality (EHSQ) software for industrial frontline operations, released Glartek 4.0 in March 2026, introducing AI-driven hazard prediction designed to prevent workplace accidents before they occur. The mobile-first, no-code platform serves more than 500 EHSQ leaders across manufacturing, energy and utilities, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and paper and pulp. Alongside the version update, Glartek secured ISO 27001 information security certification and announced a data partnership with regulatory intelligence provider Enhesa, broadening the platform's compliance capabilities for multinational industrial operators.
Business impact
Customer-reported performance data from Glartek deployments indicates material gains across safety, quality, and operational efficiency metrics. Clients report a 14% decrease in total recordable incident rate, 45% faster CAPA closure, and 91% of corrective actions closed on time. Control-of-work processes run 3x faster on the platform, and audit preparation time has been reduced by 52%. At Renault, head of technical department Constantino Pinto stated: "Glartek's product reduced our effort by 80%, which increased our plant's overall efficiency. Additionally, workers without any experience with the equipment still managed to execute processes, which made us gain more flexibility and agility."
Platform architecture and AI capabilities
Glartek's platform is designed as an AI-native system that learns from operational data and evolves continuously over time. The core cycle involves feeding real-time operational inputs into the platform, which refines its models and generates predictive alerts for hazards and compliance gaps. Discrete AI modules include AI Risk Assessment, AI Root Cause Analysis and PACA, AI-assisted inspections, AI contractor management, and a 24/7 Virtual Worker Companion. The platform consolidates digitized standard operating procedures, permit-to-work workflows, lone worker protection, chemicals management, incident management, and shift handovers in a single connected environment. A no-code design approach allows operators to configure and modify workflows without technical development resources.
ISO 27001 and Enhesa regulatory integration
In March 2026, Glartek achieved ISO 27001 certification, reinforcing the platform's suitability for operators with strict data governance and information security requirements. The company formalized a partnership with Enhesa in February 2026 to embed regulatory intelligence directly into frontline EHS execution workflows, a capability relevant to multinational operators tracking compliance obligations across jurisdictions. At APAVE, Director of Innovation and AI Sarah Askaou noted the platform's operational impact: "We have transformed our inspection procedures and ensured inspectors can accurately report all relevant information and access detailed work instructions." At cement producer Secil, 100% of LOTOTO procedures were executed correctly following digitization, according to Digital and Legal Safety Coordinator Sónia Frade.
Sector reach and upcoming event presence
Glartek reports more than 10 years of operating history and active deployments across manufacturing, energy and utilities, paper and pulp, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and chemical industries. Named customer organizations include Renault, EDP, Sonae Indústria, Lactalis, Plastic Energy, APAVE, Secil, Finerge, Microplásticos, and Valorsul. The company will exhibit at EHS Congress Berlin 2026, targeting continued expansion in European industrial markets. Platform-wide metrics show an 18% increase in near miss reporting and 99% reduction in paper usage - both indicators that carry weight in ESG reporting and regulatory audit cycles.
