Industrial radiography is one of the oldest and most trusted methods in non-destructive testing, using X-ray and gamma radiation for quality control in manufacturing and the safety inspection of critical components, enabling proactive maintenance.
As the use of industrial radiation expands, so does the need for expert shielding solutions. For over 90 years, NELCO has been a leader in providing tailored industrial shielding solutions, including lead rooms, enclosures, and concrete vaults, designed to meet the unique demands of a wide range of industrial applications.
NELCO is the largest manufacturer of lead products in the U.S., offering unmatched expertise in designing and building imaging rooms of any size for fixed X-ray systems and industrial CT. Using brick, lead sheet metal, and steel, we collaborate with your team to design, optimize, manufacture, and install custom X-ray cabinets tailored to your needs.
We also manufacture, install, and service door systems to ensure the reliable operation and safety of your imaging room. Understanding the critical importance of throughput, NELCO works closely with you to optimize system performance and maximize efficiency.
Using Impervius modular block products and Guardian Door Systems, NELCO designs and installs vaults of any size to meet your imaging needs. Whether working with linear accelerators, gamma irradiators, or cyclotron-based equipment, we deliver cost-effective shielding solutions tailored to your requirements.
Our modular concrete products are poured, cured, and inspected off-site, reducing construction interference while saving time and costs. The modular design also simplifies vault de-installation and relocation. To minimize transportation expenses, MegaShield modular blocks are manufactured near your job site and rigorously inspected for quality and compliance.
Whether you need a new vault or are renovating/upgrading an existing one, NELCO provides consultative services to ensure your project is completed on time and within budget. Our comprehensive offerings include design, design-assist, physics support, construction, project management, and complete turnkey solutions.
Additionally, we manufacture, install, and service door systems to ensure safe and reliable operation.
With NELCO, you get industrial shielding solutions that combine precision engineering, unrivaled durability, and a commitment to exceeding safety standards.
