Why join?

The UK Research Centre in Non-Destructive Evaluation (RCNDE) links world-class university research with industrial users of NDE to create a world-leading centre of excellence, designed to meet the cross-sector needs. RCNDE is a unique bridge between industries needing greater integrity and safety performance and the novel NDE technologies required to achieve this.

Industrial membership is open to all organisations in which NDE plays an important role, and benefits include:

  • Value-for-money shared research funding
  • Networking and collaboration opportunities
  • Access to world-class knowledge and next-generation talent.

There are two types of membership available, Full Industrial members (NDT users) and Associate members (NDT supply chain).

Full membership

Full industrial members gain access to, and involvement in, all RCNDE activities. This includes core projects aimed at addressing industry’s strategic NDE needs over a 20-year horizon as well as targeted research projects to address specific industrial needs in the short and medium term.

2) value for money through leverage of funding opportunities
3) cross-sector industrial collaboration and networking opportunities
4) early access to new technologies, including rights to use research outputs
