Who are we?
Welcome to NZ Rad Solutions
Leaders in X-Ray PPE Inspection Technology
Our company was founded by two professionals with more than 30 years of combined experience in radiology.
Beginning their careers as radiographers, they bring extensive expertise across routine clinical imaging, leadership roles within both public and private healthcare sectors, equipment design, user interface and user experience development, and international sales and marketing for major industry vendors. Through this broad market exposure, a critical gap became evident: the need to ensure that all professionals working with diagnostic radiation are consistently and adequately protected by reliable personal protective apparel.
Driven by a strong commitment to occupational health and safety, we have invested in cutting-edge technology to deliver a streamlined, data-driven solution for monitoring the integrity of radiation PPE. Our system provides accurate, repeatable, and individualised gown analysis, supporting effective lifecycle management and annual compliance requirements.
Our Team
Paul Couper
Director
A seasoned business leader and entrepreneur with a strong technical foundation and a proven track record across healthcare technology, medical imaging and executive leadership, Paul began his career in 1992 as an engineer at Auckland Hospital, where he designed, repaired and maintained operating theatre instruments and equipment. He later transitioned into medical imaging technology, specialising in X-ray and ultrasound equipment repair and servicing. This hands-on technical experience provided him with deep, practical insight into clinical environments, medical devices and the critical importance of safety, reliability and precision in healthcare settings.
Building on this technical expertise, Paul moved into senior sales and leadership roles, ultimately progressing to CEO-level positions. Across his 33 year career, he has led organisations through growth, transformation and innovation, working across both public and private sectors. His experience spans strategic planning, operational leadership, stakeholder engagement and bringing complex healthcare technologies to market.
As Director of NZ Rad Solutions, Paul brings together engineering expertise, imaging knowledge and executive leadership to support the delivery of trusted, data-driven radiation safety solutions. His leadership is grounded in integrity, transparency and a commitment to improving occupational health and safety for healthcare professionals and patients alike.
