Product catalog summary
Introduction
Veritas Particle Facilities introduces VeriShield™, a revolutionary radiation shielding system for proton and carbon ion therapy room construction. This system significantly reduces construction time and costs compared to traditional concrete methods.
Specifications
VeriShield utilizes ultra-high-density interlocking modules that provide 100% shielding effectiveness in approximately half the space required by concrete. The system is adaptable to any facility size and offers a lifetime guarantee on its performance.
Construction Efficiency
VeriShield dramatically cuts construction times, being three times faster than concrete. The system can be installed manually or with optional automated robots capable of installing up to 40,000 modules daily. This efficiency reduces the overall footprint of the facility while increasing usable space.
Cost and Space Savings
VeriShield offers substantial cost savings by eliminating the need for extensive concrete and steel, reducing the gross building area by 4,844 sq. ft. and increasing usable space by 1,339 sq. ft. compared to concrete constructions.
Innovative Features
The system includes patent-pending VeriShield doors that open in 12 seconds and feature intuitive touch-screen operation. These doors allow for direct entry treatment rooms, eliminating the need for space-consuming mazes.
Environmental and Practical Benefits
VeriShield eliminates the logistical challenges associated with concrete, such as lengthy construction times, hydration issues, and weather-related delays. It also removes the need for massive reinforced concrete forms and specialty forms.
Conclusion
VeriShield represents a significant advancement in particle therapy room construction, offering unmatched efficiency, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. For more information, contact Veritas at 888-242-6760 or visit Veritas-MedicalSolutions.com.
