02 Aug Bladt Industries to supply steel containers

Danish Decommissioning enters into a significant contract with Bladt Industries A/S for the supply of custom-made steel containers for radioactive waste.

IIn July, Danish Decommissioning entered into a contract with Bladt Industries A/S for the supply of specially designed steel containers for the storage of radioactive waste, including from the dismantling of the DR 3 reactor. The order was put out for EU tender in March 2017.

These are several different types of steel containers, which will be delivered during the years 2017 – 2019. The steel containers are characterized by being manufactured from special steel and designed to optimize packing and storage. The containers will thus eventually be placed in a final repository for radioactive waste in Denmark.

Both the steel quality and the welds are required to meet stringent international quality standards.

The order has a total value of just over DKK 18.5 million, with the possibility of additional procurements.
