Middle East

Sheikh Khalifa Speciality Hospital is a leading medical facility for the Northern Emirates, and with 246 beds, is the largest specialist hospital in the Middle East. Midland Lead is proud to have supplied 1175 square metres of lead-lined plaster and plywood boards via contractor Woodman Meditech, to protect patients and staff at the Sheikh Khalifa Specialty Hospital against ionizing radiation throughout the x-ray suites. We also supplied lead strips, to provide continuous sealing at joint, duct and electrical areas. 

Located in Doha on Qatar Foundation’s 2500 acre Education City campus, Sidra Medical and Research Center is a ‘state of the art’, all digital academic medical education and research facility. Built in 2015, the center offers world-class teaching and research facilities in addition to specialty care for women and children in its 400 bed hospital. 

Midland Lead supplied 1740 square metres of lead-lined board, ranging from 1.0mm through to 3.5mm in thickness. We also supplied 95 square metres of lead-lined plywood with accompanying lead strips. We’re proud that our products provide critical radiation protection for both staff and patients within diagnostic x-ray, mammography, ultrasound, CT interventional and critical care facilities. 

When construction began on The View Hospital in Doha, the goal was clear – to provide world-class clinical care in a state-of-the-art, 15-storey facility. The construction required highly demanding technical specifications on a tight timeline, and Midland Lead were engaged to supply lead sheet, used for lead-lining the walls in specialist radiation rooms. We worked closely with local partners in Qatar to ensure that every requirement, from product compliance to shipping logistics, was handled efficiently. By partnering with local contractors, Midland Lead delivered a tailored solution that met complex project specifications on a critical schedule, with a keen focus on quality, safety and sustainability.

Al Khoula Hospital was established in 1974 as the first surgical hospital in the Sultanate of Oman. Since then, many departments and medical specialties have been added, and in 2008 the new organisational structure was adopted to make Khawla Hospital a general directorate, with more than 2300 employees in various specialities. 

Midland Lead supplied 1110 square metres of 2mm lead sheet to contractor Galfar Engineering & Contracting Muscat. These products were used at the 517 bed Khoula Hospital to provide radiation wall shielding for staff and patients.
