Company Profile

Established in 1991, Safe Training Systems Ltd ( STS) specializes in scientific instrument design, development and manufacture. We have a wide range of skills - our products have involved detection systems using gas sensors, microwaves, diode arrays and also GPS, which we have combined with optical and mechanical design to produce unique products. We work in chemistry, fluorescence and ionizing radiation, so can both develop products and understand in detail the customer's projects.

Our first line of products was designed to aid training of staff in monitoring ionising radiation - so that staff could learn monitoring skills without exposure to hazardous situations. These products use either a safe liquid and gas sensor combination to simulate surface contamination, or microwaves to simulate radiation fields.
These were followed by a GPS based system, used to simulate moving clouds of radioactive or toxic materials.
Nuclear power plants, research laboratories and military establishments are our main customers, in Europe, North America and Japan.

More recently we have developed the first portable, surface monitoring fluorimeter, designed for the measurement of fluorescent chemicals directly on surfaces, enabling scientists to investigate many surface treatments or contamination.
Security printers look at fluorescent inks, packaging printers look at combinations of fluorescent and non-fluorescent pigment systems, tracers are used to monitor movement of chemicals on surfaces and industrial hygienists quantify hazardous materials.
Where analytical method development is needed in connection with our instruments, we can help - either inhouse, or by recommending suitable organizations.

As well as producing our own product lines, we are pleased to help customers with development projects or the manufacture of instruments and components to meet their specific requirements.
