VERTICAL DOWNFLOW HOODS

Company Backgrounds

Bright Technologies and Walker Safety Cabinets are both well established and successful companies within their own rights but have now embarked on a joint venture to deliver a forward thinking solution that meets current and future guidance, legislation and end user requirements.

Bright Technologies Ltd, often known as BriTec, has a renowned reputation for its expertise in Radiation Protection, Radioactive Material Handling, Shielding, Radio-Pharmaceutical Q.C., and MRI Accessories.

A key feature of BriTec is our Sheffield based in-house design and manufacturing facility. We have wide ranging experience of working with many NHS Trusts, Further Education Institutes and commercial companies. Our in-house design team and production facility allows us to take your ideas and designs, develop them and, put them into production. This versatility allows BriTec to undertake both low and high volume production runs.

In addition we are able to bespoke manufacture room installations so that the room space is optimally utilised in terms of both space and user friendliness. What do we mean by this? The installation fits both the user’s requirements and the room – not the other way round!

Although Walker Safety Cabinets are relatively unknown to the nuclear medicine community the Walker brand goes back a long way. Walker Safety Cabinets are a fully independent, family run company that has been specialising in the design, installation and servicing of microbiological safety cabinets, laboratory fume cupboards, laminar flow cabinets, isolators and other specialist ventilated containment systems since 1989. Known throughout the UK, Europe and around the world as one of the scientific industry’s leading containment specialists.
