Non-Ionising Radiation Safety
Protecting Against Everyday Energy Risks
Non-ionising radiation is a form of electromagnetic energy—such as UV light, visible light, infrared, microwaves, radiofrequency, and electromagnetic fields (EMFs)—that lacks the power to ionize atoms but can still pose health risks like heating, eye or skin damage, or interference with electronic devices.
Our Safety Services
- EMF Workplace Surveys & Assessments
We offer comprehensive assessments of electromagnetic field exposure—especially vital for environments with MRI systems, high-voltage systems, RF emitters, or radar and satellite communications. Our evaluations ensure compliance with workplace regulations and protect sensitive equipment. - Laser & Optical Radiation Safety
From lasers to UV sterilisation tools, we guide safe operation and compliance with relevant regulations—covering arc welders, UV light systems, IPLs, and more. - Customized Control Measures
Based on authoritative exposure limits (such as those set by ICNIRP), we design practical safety measures—like shielding, signage, exposure monitoring, and training—to minimize risk.
Why Non-Ionising Radiation Matters
Ultraviolet (UV): Can cause skin aging, burns, and eye damage like photokeratitis—even without immediate symptoms.
Infrared (IR) & Visible Light: Prolonged exposure may lead to eye injuries (e.g. arcs or burns) or retinal damage.
Radiofrequency (RF) & Microwaves: High-intensity exposure may induce tissue heating; compliance with exposure guidelines is essential.
Electromagnetic Fields (ELF/EMF): Although generally safe at common levels, they may affect pacemakers and interfere with electronics without proper control.
