At Matter Fabs, protecting people from radiation is our passion, and we follow strict guidelines when constructing radiation shielded rooms and doors. In all the industries we work in, we work hard to understand the needs of the operators, doctors, nurses, and physicists.

Physicists fulfill a very important role in medical, industrial, and many other fields. Diagnostic medical physicists contribute to the effectiveness of radiological imaging procedures by assuring radiation safety and improved imaging techniques. Therapeutic medical physicists contribute to the development of therapeutic techniques, collaborate with radiation oncologists to design treatment plans, and monitor equipment and procedures […]

Alpha radiation consists of charged particles that are emitted from natural materials like uranium, thorium, and radium. Alpha radiation is also emitted from man-made elements like plutonium and americium. Naturally occurring alpha radiation materials are present in the earth’s crust as well as the floors and walls of our homes, schools, offices, smoke detectors, and […]

We all want to give our beloved pets and service animals a chance at a quality life, so when this is threatened by the presence of cancerous cells, we look to the professionals for help. When a pet or service animal is diagnosed with cancer, the goal of any veterenarian is to eliminate the cancer […]

When working in industrial non-destructive testing (NDT) using radiation testing (RT), there comes the need to inspect larger parts from a longer focal film distance (FFD) to obtain the part envelope inspection. Trying to obtain a longer FFD, shooting down vertically or horizontally, is limited by the height, size, and shielding thickness of the inspection […]

Matter Fabs has the perfect medical radiation shielding room solution for keeping hospital cancer treatment on schedule while a new treatment machine is being installed and until the facility changes are complete. Once the decision is made to upgrade a cancer treatment center with a new treatment machine, it unfortunately comes with a common problem […]

When using Radiographic Testing (RT) for Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), a large portion of time is initially spent setting up and positioning the parts to inspect, setting the RT machine into shooting position, and setting the film into position. This process must be completed for each inspection, maneuvering and repositioning the parts for different inspection positions. […]

Radiation machines used for industrial application come in a range of different power levels and are sized based on the product being inspected. As time goes on, the product being inspected can change, or a new product may be introduced, making the current machine unable to properly inspect the product to the new specifications; so, […]

At Matter Fabs, we provide safety solutions for nondestructive testing (NDT) using radiographic testing (RT) for a variety of industries. NDT using RT is the process of inspecting and evaluating components like casting, welds, and vessels for any problems or differences in design intent characteristics without destroying the part. The components’ entire material can be […]

At Matter Fabs, we are committed to providing cost-effective and eco-friendly radiation shielding solutions to LMIC. LMIC stands for Low-Middle Income Countries, and these countries have a gross national income of less then $12,235 per person (also known as “developing countries”). After doing some research, we found, alarmingly, that the rate of cancer diagnoses and […]
