Lead
The largest natural deposits of lead are found in the People's Republic of China, the USA and Australia.
Due to its high density, lead is used in radiation protection products to shield against escaping X-rays. Arnold works for customers in the fields of security technology, medical technology and mechanical engineering for non-destructive material testing.
Lead is highly toxic to humans, which is why the safety of all employees during processing is a top priority. Naturally, products for radiation protection must also be 100% radiation-tight on the outside to protect machine operators. Arnold therefore pays attention to safe processes, regular training and occupational safety measures in lead processing and follows strict design principles.
