The investment in Norway is part of Radonova's wider plans to enhance its international presence as many regions across the world become increasingly affected by stringent requirements for measuring radon in homes and workplaces.
As part of a wider strategic growth initiative, Radonova acquired the radon measurement instrument division of Gammadata Instruments earlier this year. Here we take a more in-depth look at MARKUS 10, one of the state-of-the-art radon monitors developed and manufactured by Gammadata, a portable, battery-powered precision instrument for determining radon content in soil.
Radonova reflects on the hugely successful 33rd Annual 2019 International Radon Symposium and Trade Show, hosted by the American Association of Radon Scientists and Technicians (AARST).
Radonova Laboratories has signed a partnership agreement with Denmark's leading radon measurement company, RadonHuset, which will enable Radonova to deliver radon detectors to RadonHuset's customers.
Radonova Laboratories and Durridge have signed a reseller agreement where Radonova will make the Durridge RAD7 radon and thoron detector available to the European market.
As our global team descended on the Northern coast of Spain for our annual kick off meeting, it was a good time to reflect on what has been an outstanding last twelve months for Radonova. One key highlight was seeing how our whole team embraced the purpose of our business, to decrease the number of lung cancer fatalities caused by radon exposure.
Radonova Laboratories continues to expand and has appointed Thomas Chauvin. Thomas will be responsible for the company's sales, business development and partnerships in the French market. Thomas brings extensive industry experience to the new French operation, enabling Radonova to make inroads into the growing demand for radon measurement and analysis in France.
Accreditation guarantees the quality of a radon measurement, in part because the laboratory's measurement processes are regularly checked by independent organizations. The definition of an accredited radon measurement is a measurement obtained using radon detectors from a laboratory which is accredited according to ISO/IEC 17025 and follows the instructions that accompany the detectors.
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.
Radonova has released a new product, Radonova QuickScreen, to widen its portfolio of radon measurement technologies.
Radonova was honoured to be the title sponsor of the invitation-only inaugural RAPID Workshop held in Calgary on June 3/4
Since the EU's new radiation protection directive (2013/59/Euratom) came into force in 2018, it is mandatory that employers should be aware of radon levels in the workplace. The new directive has entailed new national laws in member states, which has resulted in an increasing number of workplaces measuring radon levels.
