A great delivery day at our factory as a new shipment of CEIA walkthrough metal detection units arrived, ready for installation across multiple UK Government sites.
We’d like to thank CEIA for the quick turnaround—this is the second delivery of this size we’ve received in the past two weeks, helping us meet ongoing project demands.
A big thank you also goes to our sales team for continuing to secure strong business and supporting another successful deployment. Great teamwork all around.
2025 proved to be an exceptionally busy year for the Scan-X rental team. As well as our regular deployments at major music events in Hyde Park and Victoria Park, we supported the SW19 Championships and the annual golf tournament in Northern Ireland.
We were pleased to welcome back a long-standing customer, supplying equipment for the Royal Tattoo, which was a fantastic addition to our summer schedule. At the peak of the season, all 25 of our X-ray machines were deployed simultaneously, requiring us to bring in a further eight machines from our sister company in the Netherlands to meet demand.
Throughout the year, we also responded to several short-notice rental requests for television productions. Keep an eye out in 2026—you may spot our equipment in the background of some upcoming shows.
We closed out the rental year with two large-scale deployments, supporting the AMA and a major political party AGM.
In total, 394 items were rented during 2025, including large tunnel X-ray machines, hand-luggage X-ray machines, trace detection equipment, walk-through metal detection archways, and handheld metal detectors.

2025 was also a successful year for our Aviation team. We delivered a second C3 checkpoint lane for a well-known London airport, integrating both lanes and their associated security scanners into a single, unified management system.
In addition, we were awarded a contract to supply HBS machines for another southern UK airport and completed multiple installations of our highly popular CX180180DH cargo screening machine.
We are pleased to share that our TR2000DC trace detector achieved ECAC G1 certification in 2025.
This add-on will be supplied as standard on all new units purchased from 2026 onwards. Furthermore, all units deployed since 2019 can be upgraded to meet this new standard.
Scan-X Security installed this check point system at a private jet centre two months ago.
Our engineers installed the below equipment to ensure efficient and thorough screening for passengers and bags.
A CX6040D ECAC approved C1 machine, TR2000DC trace detector, RT1003 LED’s machine and a Ceia PMD2.
Scan-X has been the UK agent for Nuctech for nearly 15 years. It took us a while to break into the aviation industry, but since then we have worked together to deliver equipment to over 20+ airports, 4 jet centres and 33 air freight companies. This is a picture of our 75th trace detector that was delivered last Thursday, following an order only 2 days before on Tuesday. Good work by our sales team and engineers to turn around an order so quickly!
Global freight and logistics companies can rely on Scan-X Security for freight screening. Scan-X engineers installed this 180180 dual view x-ray machine, capable of taking x-ray images in 2 planes, for a leading global freight company. The input and output conveyors include protection from impact by forklift trucks and its powerful generator allows it to screen through up to 70mm of steel.
A further install Scan-X completed in 2024 was the install of a CX150180D cargo screening machine, for the company DB Schenker. Scan-X have already installed two machines for this company, so this is the third. The fourth unit is in manufacture and will be shipped to their site in Ireland in the new year. After install the units are supported with planned and reactive maintenance by a large team of highly professional field service engineers.
The first of many In Flight Screening machines was installed last year by Scan-X engineers.
Our IFS CX60120D is the only Dual View Trolley screening machine.
This machine can be installed flush in the floor or as a relocatable ramp system.
Scan-X would like to wish all current and future clients and happy and safe 2024!
Our experienced team recently completed the install of a CX180180DH Pallet screening machine.
This can screen pallets continuously. The conveyors can handle multiple pallets with its 3 tonne load capacity.
With a 320 KV generator it can penetrate up to 70mm of steel and has a very impressive image quality.
