Tender: Manufacture and Supply of PVC Containment Items with Technical Support – Sellafield Ltd (2025)

About

Sellafield Ltd is seeking a supplier for the manufacture and supply of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) containment items and provision of technical support to support site operations. The scope covers information/interface checking, supply of materials, manufacture, assembly, inspection and testing at the contractor’s works, packing, provision of documentation and delivery of PVC containment and miscellaneous PVC items, including posting bags and blister bags used for the handling and interim storage of radioactive and toxic materials, and PVC tents as temporary containment around work areas. These items act as the primary containment barrier for alpha-bearing materials during glove box operations, maintenance, production, retrievals, post-operational clean-out and short- and long-term storage and therefore must meet required standards for mechanical strength, leak tightness, material reproducibility and finish. All items must meet the relevant Sellafield Ltd goods specification or be supported by the relevant concessions or manufacturing permits. Items will be ordered as call-off orders with no guaranteed volumes and inspection across the goods specifications is required. Full specifications and procurement documents are available to parties registered on Atamis project C10247; presentation slides and Q&A from the February 2025 market engagement event have been uploaded to that project.
