Container Case Study
A West Midlands-based client required specialist radiation detection rooms for their Nottingham site to improve personnel safety and ensure staff did not carry any radiation offsite.
The project required:
- Secure testing environments
- Separate “dirty” and “clean” areas
- Reliable electrical installations for specialist machinery
- Climate-controlled working conditions
How Did Lion Containers Provide the Solution?
Lion Containers converted four shipping containers into fully functional radiation detection rooms.
Each unit was carefully modified to create designated testing spaces while ensuring the client’s operational requirements were met.
Specifications
- Standard electrics installation
- Individual distribution boards
- Smoke alarms
- Air conditioning
- Additional sockets for specialist equipment
- Single anti-corrosive lights
- Motion sensors within clean rooms
As a result, each container provided a controlled environment for radiation testing while maintaining safe and efficient daily use.
