We are pleased to announce a monumental achievement for Pakistan as SGS successfully conducted a thorough examination of the bouncy castle Jumbo Jump in Karachi, paving the way for their inclusion in the prestigious Guinness Book of World Records (GWR).

The Challenge

In November 2023, SGS Pakistan was entrusted with the responsibility of surveying an inflatable bouncy castle to ascertain its eligibility as the world's largest per the guidelines set by Guinness World Records. 

This exciting endeavor posed unique challenges, necessitating a specially curated scope of activities aligned with GWR guidelines.
