Van Walt’s Window Sampling System is very photogenic!

Who would have thought a RD 32 rope thread connection, a hollow sample top, laser cut gouges and window-less core samplers could be so camera-friendly – but they have proved very photogenic as evidenced by the number included in our recently ended Photographic Competition.

The Locations and the businesses who use this equipment have often proved to be really interesting: Sellafield Nuclear Fuels; Democratic Republic of Congo: Sunderbans, India; University of Reading; Barcelona and many more!  However, in our eyes the equipment still remains the star of the show!
