Providing Radiation Shielding for Over 50 Years
Radiation Protection Options
Lancs Industries has over 50 years of expertise in developing radiation protection solutions for a wide range of applications and industries, including nuclear power plants, Department of Energy hazardous waste remediation sites, the US Naval sector, and many more . Our team of experts will help guide you through our different types of radiation protection products (alpha, beta, gamma) and can custom-configure shielding, blankets and racks to match the unique requirements of your radioactive setting.
Whether you’re in the defense sector, medical industry, radiography, or waste management, our lead-free radiation shielding and equipment meets all regulatory guidelines for radiation control. Our shielding is custom produced to meet the specific needs of radiation challenge. Protect operators and technicians from potential health hazards associated with exposure and minimize contamination spread with our proven, innovative products.
Modern and Environmentally-Responsible Alternatives
Lead-free shielding refers to alternative materials or methods used to provide protection against ionizing radiation without the use of lead. Non-lead shielding products offer comparable protection to lead shielding, while avoiding the high cost of hazardous material disposal.
Lancs Industries offers a wide range of safe and cost-effective radiation shielding products made from tungsten or bismuth. Products include blankets, safety floor shields, pipe wraps, and more. All of these products can be made in almost any 3-dimensional shape, and therefore customized to any specification.
Iron, bismuth, and tungsten based lead-free shielding come with reduced toxicity and disposal considerations, making them great choices for green initiatives and ensuring compliance with RoHS and other environmental regulations. Using non-hazardous materials for radiation shielding also significantly reduces the disposal costs associated with special waste management.
All of our lead-free materials have been demonstrated to meet the Nuclear Regulatory Commission guidelines, and are compliant with nuclear industry smoke development, flame spread, and critical radiant flux measurement standards.
