A computer chip, also called a semiconductor or integrated circuit, is a series of electronic circuits printed onto a conducting material, usually silicon. They form the physical building blocks used to make computers and run software. Laser Levels, Laser, Detectors & Remote Controls all contain semiconductors.

The demand for semiconductors is at record levels due to a boost in demand for computers and other hand held electronics in combination with trade barriers (e.g. Brexit). This has contributed to a global shortage of semiconductors that affects many industries including ours.

Laser Levels Online is impacted by the shortage of semiconductors and have had to temporarily adjust certain kit configurations, product lines and mark products out of stock to adapt our product offerings to adapt to the supply situation. These actions are temporary until the situation stabilises, and together with our suppliers, we are working hard to ensure that we can return to normal as soon as possible.

Laser Levels Online are working closely with both our suppliers and logistics partners to minimise the impact and secure supply of as many products as possible.

The semiconductor shortage, Brexit, Covid-19 and other factors has sent prices soaring in all sectors. Our main aim is to secure the supply of all available products and as such this will have an ongoing impact on pricing. However, as we publish the current levels of stock in our main warehouse on our website, unlike with many other retailers, you can be assured we do actually have available the product you are ordering.
