Epic Crystal Co., Ltd. is the leading developer and manufacturer of scintillation crystals in China, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Huaqiao Town, Kunshan, Jiangsu Province (some sources reference 2005 as the operations start year and Shanghai for early activities). The team is composed of technologists and entrepreneurs from the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) with over 20 years of experience in the scintillation crystals field. The production line covers a comprehensive range of scintillators including CsI(Tl), NaI(Tl), LYSO(Ce), GAGG(Ce), CdWO4, LaBr3(Ce), CeBr3, BGO, YSO(Ce), and plastic scintillators — widely used in nuclear radiation detection, environment monitoring, nuclear medical imaging, X-ray security inspection, non-destructive testing, high-energy physics, geological exploration, and other relevant fields. Bridgman and Czochralski are the main growth technologies used. Further processing capability includes cutting, lathing, grinding, polishing, and array assembly — providing scintillators in monolithic blocks with unique shapes, dimensions, surface finishes, and packages, plus linear or 2D arrays with various pixel sizes, pitches, and configurations. Separators include TiO2, BaSO4, 3M Enhanced Specular Reflector (ESR), and retro-reflectors. The company also assembles crystals with photo-multipliers tubes (PMTs), silicon photo-multipliers (SiPMs), or photo-diode arrays (PDAs). Certified under ISO 9001:2015, GB/T 28001-2011, and OHSAS 18001:2007. Customers include Kromek, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Rexon Components Inc., with 500+ customers worldwide. epic-scintillator.com is a retail e-commerce site for research institutes, laboratories, and universities requiring rapid delivery — products share the same quality standard as those from epic-crystal.com (the main industrial site).
Applications: Nuclear Radiation Detection, Environment Monitoring, Nuclear Medical Imaging (PET/SPECT), X-Ray Security Inspection, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), High Energy Physics Research, Geological Exploration, Homeland Security, Space Radiation Monitoring
