Radonova's Fredrik Lindén

Blog post - 9 June 2020 10:00

Instrument veteran driven by helping customers

Fredrik Lindén has worked with radon measuring instruments for many years. When the radon measurement instrument division of Gammadata Instruments was acquired by Radonova in early 2019, Fredrik became part of a knowledgeable team in a very busy workshop.

Close customer contact

“I enjoy working at a company where my day-to-day activities are varied. They range from purchasing and inventory management to service, testing and production. Our instruments, and the services we offer, have a major impact on our customers' operations. The service and support work we undertake requires particularly close customer contact. I find this stimulating and rewarding especially as we try to help our customers as quickly and efficiently as possible. The test phase is particularly gratifying as it concludes extensive work we have carried out in the workshop. We need this verification so that we can confirm that the instrument is field-ready.”

Freedom and responsibility encourage commitment

“At Radonova, employees are given freedom and encouraged to act on their own initiative. In the workplace, it certainly feels like the goals of the individual and the company are aligned. Our mantra is to continually improve to ensure that we offer partners, consumers and businesses exceptional radon measurement technologies. If you are given freedom and responsibility, you also become more committed. This commitment is important as we work with relatively complex flows and procedures, so we need to be precise in every phase of the manufacturing process.”

Acquisition extended Radonova’s portfolio

By acquiring the radon measurement instrument division of Gammadata, Radonova added several advanced instruments and products to its portfolio, broadening its range of radon measurement technologies. By offering a comprehensive program for radon measurement, Radonova is responding to the global demand for safe and efficient radon measurements in homes and workplaces and strengthening its position as a world leader.

Measuring radon in water – Radonova gets top marks in EU test

Radonova Laboratories has achieved excellent results in the comparative EU test “REM 2018”. The test measures the incidence of radon in water and compares participating laboratories’ analytical results with a reference value. Radonova’s analysis had an average deviation of 3.1 per cent in relation to the reference value. Deviations up to 15 per cent are judged to be an acceptable result.

Global study confirms the harmful effects of radon

A study based on data from 66 countries and presented in Environmental Health Studies (EHP) confirms that there is a clear link between exposure to radon and the risk of lung cancer. Updated data from 2012 show that around 226,000 people died that year from radon-related lung cancer. That means that about three per cent of all those who die from some form of cancer do so because of radon.

Radonova launches new software to simplify radon measurement during working hours

To simplify radon measurement in workplaces, Radonova has developed new software which works with radon instruments to make it easier to measure and analyze radon levels during the working day.
“There is increased demand for both accredited long-term measurements at workplaces and radon measurements during working hours. In order to quickly obtain an annual average value and meet this need, Ra

Radon as a health risk is a global problem that each year is estimated to cause around 230,000 cases of lung cancer.

Radon as a health risk – WHO report

The WHO’s latest report ‘Guidelines on Housing and Health’ describes how people’s housing and health are affected by a variety of factors. The report describes radon, among other factors, as a health risk. The report draws attention to the fact that radon should be regarded as a carcinogen on a par with tobacco smoke.

Seasonal workers are crucial to Radonova's operations

Radon measurement is largely seasonal, with May being the peak. But even from October, there are many days when thousands of detectors are sent to customers and then returned for analysis. To cope with the peaks across the year, seasonal staff play a pivotal role in Radonova's ongoing operations. We had a chat with 25-year-old Melker Lindberg who is now finishing his first season at Radonova.

New Builds – the importance of measuring for radon in soil

When radon is being discussed, it frequently revolves around levels of radon in soil. This is not surprising. Radon leaking or being sucked from the ground is the cause of elevated indoor radon levels in 80 per cent of affected properties. However, it is important to note that radon content in the soil where the building is located, does not necessarily determine indoor radon levels. In most cases
