Security Screening Highlights 2025

A Busy Year for the Scan-X Rental Team

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.

Strong Progress for Our Aviation Team

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.

 

TR2000DC Trace Detector Certification

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.

From large-scale event security to advanced aviation screening solutions, 2025 showcased our commitment to quality, reliability, and innovation. As demand continues to grow, we’re ready to support new and existing customers with proven technology and expert service.

We will be exhibiting!

Visit Stand F35 to meet with Scan-X Security & Ensco as they launch the new Microsearch G4.0 System to the UK market.

This new system detects and deters clandestines and helps to enhance security. It is faster, quicker and more precise than visual inspections. This system tracks, analyses and retrieves to prove that the industry standards are met.

It detects heartbeats in vehicles. It is attached by two sensors to either end of the vehicles that detects the heartbeats. The system allows you to see which sensor is generating more activity making it easier to detect the person inside. It allows the operator to easily determine if the system is actively working in the situation and helps to identify locations where vibrations may be present and determine if wind or other vibrations are present.

It can provide real-time feedback on wind speed and direction. It can capture and image of the vehicle under the test which may include the license plate. It then allows those images to be added to database for future reference.

Whilst at the expo, why not visit another of our suppliers Nuctech.

We look forward to seeing you on Stand F35 at UK Security Expo!

If your event involves a large number of guests, or VIPs or is located in a high profile location, then you may well be considering metal detection and security x-ray technology as part of your security mix.Continue reading
