Lead Lined Plywood
What is Lead Lined Plywood?
Lead lined plywood is a high-performance radiation shielding solution manufactured by laminating pure lead sheets between or onto strong, moisture-resistant plywood panels. This combination delivers excellent radiation attenuation while maintaining structural strength, workability, and durability. It is engineered to meet stringent radiation protection standards for medical, nuclear, and industrial facilities.
Applications of Lead Lined Plywood
Lead lined plywood is widely used in environments where radiation exposure must be strictly controlled. Common applications include X-ray rooms, CT scan facilities, radiology and nuclear medicine departments, diagnostic labs, industrial testing areas, control rooms, partitions, doors, and equipment enclosures. Its versatility allows it to be installed on walls, ceilings, and movable barriers, making it suitable for both new construction and retrofit projects.
Key Benefits & Advantages
Lead lined plywood offers effective shielding against X-ray and gamma radiation, ensuring safety for operators, patients, and surrounding areas. It is easy to cut, shape, and install compared to solid lead solutions, reducing installation time and cost. The material supports custom lead thicknesses to meet specific radiation levels, provides long-term durability, and allows for clean finishing with laminates, paint, or decorative surfaces—ensuring compliance without compromising aesthetics.
