The European Radiation Dosimetry Group (EURADOS) organizes one of Europe’s most important events in the field of dosimetry and ionizing radiation. This year’s conference will take place in Bucharest, Romania, from February 24 to 27, bringing together leading experts, researchers, and organizations in radiation dosimetry – including Radonova.
Radon, the invisible and odorless gas naturally found in soil, has garnered increased attention in recent years due to its potentially serious health effects and the need for effective measurement and mitigation solutions. José-Luis Gutiérrez Villanueva, an expert at Radonova Laboratories, identifies three key trends expected to influence the field of radon in 2025.
Radonova actively works to reduce the harmful effects of radon through international collaborations and research. A recent example is the company's participation in Spain’s national Radon R&D&I Workshop focused on radon research and development. The event, held November 11–13 at the Canfranc Laboratory in the Pyrenees, brought together researchers, organizations, and policymakers.
Radonova has signed a new cooperation agreement with Portuguese Radinov, making Radinov Radonova's local partner and dealer in Portugal. Radinov has a long history of working with radiation protection and now expects to expand the business within radon measurements, especially in workplaces. The company is headquartered in Porto.
Radonova's participation in international conferences continues. From August 27 to 28, José-Luis Gutiérrez Villanueva will be in Calgary to give a presentation on real-time radon testing using digital instruments. The conference, titled "Radiation and Air Pollutant Disease (RAPID) Prevention and Early Detection," is one of this year's most important events for international radon experts.
Last year’s European Radon Week was cancelled due to the pandemic, therefore there is great anticipation for the 2021 event. The conference is being held in Fribourg, Switzerland and will take place between 12 and 15 October. The event brings together researchers, experts and industry representatives from across Europe and the rest of the world.

Radonova and ACPRO, one of Radonova´s distributors in Spain, have taken part in an intercomparison exercise with passive radon detectors. The Radtrak2 detectors used in the test got very good results when comparing to other detectors.
ACPRO SLU has been authorized as a Technical Unit in Radiological Protection (UTPR) since 1990. The national intercomparison test was organized by Universitat Pol
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.
