    The European Radon Week 2021 took place this year in Fribourg, Switzerland. It is arguably the most important event of the year for the radon community, as it includes European Radon Association (ERA) workshops alongside a focus on Radon Outcomes On Mitigation Solutions (ROOMS).
    In Fribourg, the ERA’s workshops concentrated on international collaborations on radon. The event brings together res

  • Research measurement data of indicates that there can be unexpectedly high levels of radon, regardless of floor level

    New statistics show that all floors should be included in workplace radon measurements

    Research measurement data of over 15,000 Swedish workplaces indicates that there can be unexpectedly high levels of radon, regardless of floor level or where you specifically measure. The findings confirm the importance of measuring sufficiently and not being satisfied with a small number of measuring points. An inadequate measurement can in the long run contribute to an unnecessary health hazard.

  • Any exposure to radon gas provides a risk, even is that exposure is reasonably low

    What are acceptable levels of radon gas exposure?

    The effects of radon gas exposure on our health are well documented and have been proven to be life threatening. In fact, Radon gas exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. Therefore, long-term exposure to the gas increases the probability of developing lung cancer.
    Any exposure to radon gas provides a risk, even is that exposure is reasonably low. The key message is
