Sellafield Ltd is seeking product-based innovations that can be used alongside existing protective equipment to better support nuclear decommissioning operators working in contaminated environments.
Many nuclear decommissioning tasks take place within complex legacy facilities where remote methods are not always practicable. Some activities require operators to enter contaminated areas and undertake manual work demanding high levels of dexterity. Operators must wear restrictive personal protective equipment (PPE), which may include respirators, hoods, double gloves, PVC garments and air-fed suits. While essential for protection, these arrangements can make work hot, tiring and physically awkward.
Sellafield Ltd is looking for product-based innovations to complement existing protective equipment and better support operators in contaminated environments. Improvements could enhance safety and comfort, increase productive working time, and enable faster, more efficient decommissioning.
