Amazon secure Magnox contract [![](https://www.amazonfilters.com/hubfs/Blog%20Assets/side-arrow-flip-white@3x.svg) Back to news ](https://www.amazonfilters.com/company-information/news) THE COMPANY Amazon Filters Ltd., a F4N (Fit For Nuclear) approved manufacturer of Nuclear filtration products, has received a major order from Magnox – the management and operations contractor responsible for 12 nuclear sites and 1 hydroelectric power plant in the UK. THE OPPORTUNITY The order, received as a result of a public tender, was for the manufacture of vent filter assemblies to be used on nuclear waste storage containers used to isolate radioactive waste until it is safe for disposal. To make these nuclear waste storage containers suitable for use, it is necessary to fit a vent filter assembly to prevent any pressure build-up of flammable gases in the package and to eliminate the passage of any contaminated dust. Working from an established stainless-steel vent filter assembly design – Magnox sought a partner to productionise and supply a large number of these units in order to meet their operational requirements. The brief called for validation of the production manufacturing techniques to ensure the vent unit was survivable against severe impacts, along with testing of all production units to ensure that each one met the permeability and particulate retentive qualities required. Following a lengthy evaluation process, Amazon Filters was chosen by Magnox as the successful vendor – as it was able to meet quality, production and schedule requirements, while also being able to offer a cost saving, helping to deliver improved value for the UK taxpayer. Amazon Filters has achieved Fit for Nuclear (F4N) status, a Government Programme, overseen by AMRC.
