PL Medical

What PL Medical does

PL Medical Co. LLC is a US-based provider of occupational radiation monitoring and dosimetry solutions, founded in 1988 and headquartered in Bloomfield, USA. The company specialized in measuring worker radiation exposure through dosimeter badges and supporting monitoring services, primarily serving medical, dental, veterinary, and industrial end-markets within the broader CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear) protective equipment market. Its addressable use cases included whole body, extremity, and area monitoring, with a customer base spanning civil defense agencies and industrial safety buyers requiring compliance-grade radiation protection.

In August 2025, PL Medical was acquired by Radiation Detection Company (RDC), described as the world's longest-running dosimetry laboratory, in continuous operation since 1949. The transaction positioned PL Medical as a subsidiary under RDC, with PL Medical's products and capabilities folded into RDC's broader portfolio. The combined offering now spans digital (NetDose Pro), TLD, and OSL dosimeter badges — including the newer ORA Ring — alongside the MyRadCare platform suite for program management, the MyRad DoseCheck wearer self-service portal, and the MyRad Insights analytics layer. The combined customer base extends across hospitals and health systems, dental and medical practices, veterinary clinics, industrial operators, nuclear facilities, and higher-education laboratories, with named users including Cleveland Clinic, MedVet, Honeywell, Intel, Nestle, Pacific Gas, and Baylor Scott & White Health.

Commercially, the dosimetry services market is regulatory-compliance-driven and recurring in nature: badges are exchanged on a scheduled cycle and dose reports are produced against NRC and state-level requirements, supporting a subscription-style revenue model. The broader CBRN protective equipment market is projected to reach $15.61 billion by 2030 at an 8.0% CAGR, providing a secular tailwind. Detailed pricing and revenue mechanics for PL Medical are not publicly disclosed.
