Reference # : Model No :

A demonstration of earlier works to a wide variety potentially interested plant bodies has given rise to modification and consent for an active plant trial. This type of tent enclosure can be erected by 2 people (e.g., plant operators) in less than 2 hours, saving valuable time and money. A future active plant trial is planned to take account of the positive feedback given at the demonstration. This showed that interests extend beyond Sellafield, including International Nuclear Services (INS). Its portable and rapid erection structure has obvious application for emergency response and Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear (CBRN) events in the UK and abroad (e.g., Fukushima).
