Working with us
What does JL Goslar do?
JL Goslar designs and manufactures custom solutions in lead, tin and other materials for industry, chemicals, radiation protection and medical technology – from design and manufacturing to commissioning.
Do you also make one-offs and custom solutions?
Yes. A large share of our projects are custom solutions to customer specification – from a single component to a complete plant.
Do you deliver and install internationally?
Yes. We deliver worldwide, install with our own teams at the customer’s site and are represented by partners in several countries.
What do you need for a quotation?
Helpful information includes a drawing or sketch, dimensions, quantity, operating conditions and – for radiation shielding – radiation source, energy and dose rate. You can attach files directly in the contact form.
Radiation shielding
How thick does lead shielding need to be?
It depends on the type of radiation, energy, dose rate and target value. Our shielding calculator gives a first estimate; our engineering team carries out the binding design.
Do you build radiation shielding cabins for industrial CT?
Yes. We have delivered more than 50 large radiation shielding cabins for industrial CT inspection worldwide – including automatic doors and gates.
Do you supply containers for radioactive materials?
Yes. We have manufactured more than 3,000 containers and inserts for the storage and transport of nuclear waste and hold a manufacturer approval for packages for the transport of radioactive materials.
Anodes & apparatus
Which anodes do you offer?
Rolled lead-silver anodes for zinc electrowinning, lead-calcium anodes for copper electrowinning and anodes for electroplating, pickling and special applications.
What is homogeneous lead lining?
In homogeneous lead lining, lead is bonded metallurgically and without pores to a steel body. This creates corrosion-resistant equipment for acids and process liquids. We have used the process in automated form since 1972.
Dangerous goods
Do you manufacture containers for bromine?
Yes. We manufacture ISO containers, small containers and drums for liquid bromine and hold around 70 % of the world market for bromine transport containers.
Quality & environment
Which certificates does JL Goslar hold?
Among others DIN EN ISO 9001, DIN EN ISO 14001, EN 1090, DIN EN ISO 3834-2, pressure vessels to the Pressure Equipment Directive, BAM welding approval to ADR and WHG specialist company. See the full list under Quality & certificates.
Is lead sustainable?
Lead can be recycled without loss of quality. Our products reach a raw material recycling rate of 99 %, and we have already recycled more than 330,000 lead anodes.
