Established in 2010 as part of the US-based PAR Systems for maintaining remote handling equipment at the Sellafield site, the company successfully completed a management buyout in 2021. In early 2024, it rebranded as CORE Nuclear Solutions, officially separating from the international corporation.
Our business is unique in the industry providing full-life-cycle solutions, from design, manufacturing and testing to maintenance and decommissioning.
