Protecting the UK’s major events

Posted on by

As the photos show the Scan-X Security rental division have been especially busy protecting the UK this summer.

Our team have provided security screening equipment (x-ray machines, metal detection archways and related equipment) to several large sporting events such as tennis and golf. We have also supported a series of open air concerts in both Hyde Park and Victoria Park.

Scan-X have also provided similar security for the recent visit of one of the world’s most high profile political leaders in Turnberry, the annual Muslim conference and a major religious event held at the Excel Centre in London.

So far this year, we’ve deployed 65 x-ray machines, 156 archway metal detectors, 580 hand held wands and 12 trace detectors.

We can help with any event from 1 day VIP protection to longer duration events, with an extensive range of equipment and the ability to provide onsite support engineers if needed.

Building on an impressive portfolio of UK clients Scan-X have again been chosen to provide the physical security for one of the UK’s household name sports events. Our experienced team set up the 16 x-ray machines shown for baggage screening at the venue entrance. The machines were supplied by Nuctech and have gained excellent feedback from other sports events, particularly regarding the crystal clear images that are provided. Complementing these x-ray machines were 50 airport quality metal detection wands from the manufacturer Ceia. Scan-X engineers were on site to support the equipment provided and ensure fast responses.

PTXScan-X at Passenger Expo
Passenger Terminal Expo 2017 is the world’s main airport conference allowing leaders in the aviation sector the chance to share knowledge and network face to face. Scan-X has been an exclusive agent to Nuctech in Non-Aviation for some time, but were appointed the exclusive agent for all of the UK and have since sold several Dual View machines including 320KV CX180180DH units into airfreight. We have sold several TR2000DBA and Raman Liquid scanners.
Scan-X Security is now capable of supplying and servicing standard 3 security x-ray equipment (the latest standard for aviation providing 3 dimensional images using CT or computed tomography technology).
The Nuctech range of equipment is complemented by explosives and narcotics trace detection kit – capable of finding minute traces of either – and liquid inspection technology capable of rapidly analysing the liquid in bottles. This exciting development builds on our existing partnership with Ceia the world’s leading archway metal detection supplier enabling Scan-X to provide the full range of equipment that’s needed in the UK.
