When safety and compliance matter most, you need containers that perform without compromise. Canada Metal North America designs and manufactures lead-shielded containers that protect personnel, equipment, and the environment — from bench-top isotope handling to industrial-scale nuclear waste storage. With over 140 years of Canadian lead manufacturing behind us, we deliver certified products trusted by hospitals, laboratories, and nuclear utilities across Canada and the U.S.
- ISO 9001:2015 Certified
- CSA N299.3-16 Certified (nuclear-grade quality assurance / NQA-1 aligned)
- Lead meets ASTM B29 / ASTM B749 specification
- 100% Made-in-Canada
Isotope & Radiopharmacy Containers
Handling isotopes requires precision and care. Our engineering team designs isotope containers for the daily demands of laboratories, hospitals, and radiopharmacies — sized and shielded for safe transport, dispensing, and short-term storage of radioactive materials.
Applications:
- Medical imaging and isotope delivery
- Nuclear medicine and radiopharmacy dispensing
- Nuclear research and testing facilities
- Industrial radiography source handling
Nuclear Waste & Decay Staging Containers
Nuclear facilities generating low- and intermediate-level waste need containers built to a different standard — larger capacity, engineered pallets, and documentation that satisfies a utility’s own Nuclear Purchasing Quality Clauses (NPQC). As a CSA N299.3-16 certified manufacturer with in-house engineering, CMNA designs and fabricates lead-shielded waste and decay staging containers to meet facility-specific technical specifications, factory inspection, and testing requirements — from initial RFQ through delivery.
Applications:
- Interim decay staging for low-level radioactive waste
- Waste sorting and recycling facility support
- Nuclear power plant maintenance and outage waste handling
- Transport and storage packages for radioactive materials
