A company that makes 3D X-ray machines for security, bomb detection and industrial inspections has seen a rise in orders following a slowdown during the pandemic.
Management at Image Scan said deals with clients in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Togo, Brazil, and Columbia had helped take sales to almost £1.5 million for the last six months – 85 per cent up on a year earlier.
The business was also back in the black for the period with pre-tax profits of £16,000 compared to a loss of £345,000 a year before. In a trading update the business said growing momentum from trade shows and demonstrations – including a Middle Eastern regional trade event, supported by the Department for International Trade Internationalisation Fund – had helped its performance.
