Arden Ultraviolet to Showcase UV Safety at Materials Testing 2026 Arden Ultraviolet will be exhibiting at Materials Testing 2026 at the Telford International Centre on Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th September, where it will highlight the importance of safe working practices around artificial ultraviolet (UV) light sources used throughout manufacturing, testing and industrial processes. Recognised …
UV Radiation Safety at Work: Why It Matters Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is one of the most overlooked hazards in UK workplaces. Unlike noise, chemicals, or manual handling risks, UV exposure rarely causes an immediate, visible reaction. There’s no loud bang, no obvious spill, no instant injury to point to. That’s exactly what makes it dangerous …
How a pre-live safety check prevented serious worker injuries on a food production line UV-C disinfection safety is not an afterthought – it’s a legal requirement, and a critical one. As UV-C disinfection systems become more widely adopted across food production, healthcare, and manufacturing, the risks of incorrect installation are growing too. A food production …
If your organisation uses artificial UV light sources, conducting a thorough UV risk assessment is a legal requirement. The Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations 2010 (CAOR 2010) and the underpinning EU Directive 2006/25/EC place clear obligations on employers to identify, assess and control the risks from UV radiation in the workplace. For …
Ultraviolet light has been a tool of forensic science for decades, but its role in everyday policing, commercial asset protection, and industrial security has grown substantially in recent years. The combination of UV-fluorescent forensic marking liquids, a rapidly maturing LED lamp market, and policy changes requiring custody screening has pushed UV detection from the laboratory …
UV Curing Adhesive for Glass Bonding How a whiskey bottle manufacturer achieved a clean, automated fix for custom metal decals In premium spirits packaging, presentation is everything. For one whiskey bottle manufacturer, the challenge of bonding decorative metal decals cleanly and reliably to glass – as part of a high-speed automated production line – called …
UV Inspection in Electronics Manufacturing The Essential Guide to Conformal Coating Validation UV inspection is one of the most reliable and widely used quality control methods in electronics and PCB manufacturing. Whether you are validating conformal coating coverage, detecting contamination, or identifying flux residues, ultraviolet light reveals what the naked eye simply cannot see. For …
UVC Disinfection for Chillers and Refrigerators How Fixed UV Lamps Are Reducing Contamination and Cutting Food Waste in Cold Storage UVC disinfection for chillers and refrigerated storage is one of the most effective, low-maintenance tools available to food producers, processors and retailers looking to reduce microbial contamination, extend product shelf life and cut food waste. …
UV Radiation Safety of UV-C Disinfection Systems in Food Manufacturing UV-C disinfection is an increasingly important tool in food manufacturing and processing — offering a chemical-free method of reducing microbial contamination on surfaces, in air and in water. But UV-C is the most hazardous form of UV radiation, and its use in food environments creates …
UV Radiation Safety for Non-Destructive Testing Processes in Aerospace Fluorescent penetrant inspection and magnetic particle inspection are critical NDT techniques across the aerospace sector — and among the most UV-intensive occupational processes found in any industry. Managing UV exposure is both a legal requirement and a fundamental duty of care. UV-A in Aerospace Non-Destructive Testing …
