Health Physics

AST works in collaboration with specialist manufacturers in radiation protection and monitoring to provide a safe environment where there are risks of contamination from radioactive sources. Our efficient, fast response scintillators contribute to an excellent signal-to-noise ratio for high sensitivity radiation protection applications such as Health & Safety at work, environment monitoring and decommissioning procedures.

We supply a wide range of alpha and beta particle scintillator screens and coatings to manufacturers of hand-held and fixed scanners used for the detection of radiation, on personnel, garments or equipment in the general, or laboratory, environment.
