For USA Government organizations, our products are also available through Government Scientific Source (GSS) and the GSA.
Field tests to identify Uranium & Plutonium
USD $ 19.90 per test (box of 100) contact us for government and volume pricing or if you have any product questions.
"Complex operations can’t wait for the lab. CodeNu provides immediate onsite indication of uranium and plutonium contamination."
"Every police officer, firefighter, customs & border agent or soldier can test vehicles, equipment, people, weapons, or even clothing on the spot."
- Information to make operational decisions
- Real-time intelligence
- Everyone becomes a "field sensor"
- Reduced exposure accumulation
Colorimetric wipes to identify Beryllium
USD $ 37.50 per test (box of 100) contact us for government and volume pricing or if you have any product questions.
"If you are not CodeBe clean, there is little operational logic in beginning expensive laboratory testing cycles."
"If you are handling copper beryllium (CuBe) or pure beryllium, CodeBe makes you safer, saves time and money."
- Reduced failed laboratory cycles and spending
- Improved decontamination efficiency
- Improved workflow management and increased uptime
- Practical deployment within existing frameworks
- Ensure duty of care for fiduciary risk management
Estimate your contamination workflow savings
Use rapid field screening to reduce the number of samples sent directly into laboratory-only workflows. Select the product, choose your current testing method, and enter your approximate annual testing volume to compare costs.
- ✓ Screen more frequently and spend less money by reducing unnecessary laboratory submissions.
- ✓ Prioritise lab confirmation for the remaining samples that require further verification.
- ✓ Support procurement decisions with a practical estimate of annual savings and operational efficiency.
- ✓ Maintain operational tempo with improved risk management from real time contamination information.
- ✓ Reduce product safety issues by checking for contamination before shipping to customers.
- ✓ Reduce the cost of risk visibly clean is a guess know what is there without the lab wait time.
- ✓ Save time if you are not CodeBe clean, there is little operational logic in beginning expensive laboratory testing cycles.
Contamination screening cost ROI calculator
Model a workflow where rapid screening replaces routine submissions, with selected samples retained for verification.
This calculator is illustrative only. Actual costs, savings, sampling strategies, verification requirements and timelines vary by organization, workflow, batch size, internal procedures and applicable compliance requirements.

Safer Environment Limited
Beth Walker, Director"Valuable for those times when you need to demonstrate compliance of an area without having to wait for lab results. Giving the tools to understand the risk level immediately removes the need for worst case thinking".

Our Mission
Our mission is to deliver simple, field-ready tools that provide near-instant, go / no-go screening for contamination. When a wipe returns a positive result teams can act immediately. Real time information allows people to step away, clean, contain, or adjust processes, reducing exposure and improving safety when it matters.
-
Why Choose Us
Our advanced capabilities have been developed within the United States National Laboratories and National Security Complexes. We provide these capabilities to users in the nuclear, mining, defense, security, and first responder services globally.
