For radon monitoring it is crucial to be able to seal the detectors in such a way that the test results are reliable.

Radonova launches brand-new vacuum packs for radon detectors

Radonova Laboratories is launching a new vacuum packaging solution to allow the detectors used in radon monitoring to be vacuum-sealed with a new machine. This vacuum packaging helps to enhance quality still further and ensures that the monitoring and analysis work can be done without any previous leakage affecting the measurement results.

Vacuum packs provide for more efficient transport and storage
“Apart from being completely radon-tight, the new vacuum pack is smaller, which means less bulky shipments and more efficient storage. This particularly benefits our resellers and international customers. Of course the new packaging also has environmental benefits as it uses less material. Another advantage of the vacuum packaging is that any bag that is damaged in transit is easy to spot. This pleases Radonova Laboratories’ laboratory manager, Oscar Wännerud.

“We have always known that the plastic film and the packs that we use are of very high quality. By using a new machine and a more automated process where the detectors are vacuum-packed, we are now taking a further step towards the optimum packaging solution,” he concludes.

WHO estimates that up to 14% of all lung cancer cases are caused by radon. Find out more about the risks associated with radon and how to measure it here.

COIRA chooses radon detectors from Radonova for major international study

Radonova Laboratories will be providing radon detectors to a major international study to be run by COIRA (the Coalition of International Radon Associations). The aim of the project is to compare radon measurement results obtained by the world’s leading monitoring institutions in the field of radiation protection. The project started in August 2018 and will run for two years.

The BfS is Europe’s leading player in the calibration of radon measurement equipment and one of the few to be accredited under the ISO 17025 standard.

Radonova’s radon measurements get top marks from Europe’s leading radiation protection body

Radonova Laboratories has achieved excellent results in reference tests conducted by the German Federal Office For Radiation Protection (Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz - BfS). Comparative tests of four different radon samples show that Radonova’s results differed by less than ten per cent from the reference values in all cases.

Individual date-marking makes it easier for international stockists and customers who have their own stock of radon detectors.
