Radtrak³ is now approved for use in Germany, United Kingdom and Switzerland as an official measurement solution

News - 16 December 2021 12:40

Radtrak³ approved in three new European countries

In Spring 2021, Radonova launched the latest version of its most popular global radon detector, Radtrak³. Radtrak³ is smaller than its predecessor, which simplifies both the deployment and delivery process. The smaller size and the ability to reuse plastic components also makes it more environmentally friendly.

Radtrak³ is now approved for use in Germany, United Kingdom and Switzerland as an official measurement solution. These three countries represent a significant percentage of Radonova’s business in Europe.

“In Switzerland, Radonova is a market leader. We have been measuring radon in Switzerland for decades and have a strong partnership network. The availability of Radtrak³ will consolidate our position in the country and enhance the portfolio of solutions we can offer customers in the field of radon measurement. We are committed to ensuring our customers have access to state-of-the-art solutions,” said Karl Nilsson, CEO of Radonova

“Germany is a relatively new market for Radonova as radon regulation has only recently been passed. Being able to supply our partners in Germany with Radtrak³ will increase our value proposition and allow us to target new opportunities in a country where our footprint is currently the fastest growing in Europe,” stated Patrik Nöteberg, an experienced radon specialist responsible for Radonova sales in Germany.

“The UK has always been a very competitive and challenging market for Radonova. As a new product, Radtrak³ enables us to expand our portfolio of products and services. Radtrak² was already the best-selling radon detector in the UK for long term passive measurement. With all of the new features Radtrak³ has to offer, it is destined to be extremely popular with new and existing customers,”, said Maria Dugdale, Radonova’s UK sales representative.

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.

How does radon gas affect humans?

Radon gas is responsible for 55% of the total exposure of the general public to natural ionizing radiation (UNSCEAR report 2000). We can always find elevated radon levels indoors, and we are breathing radon gas everywhere. However, questions arise such as why is radon gas dangerous and how does it affect humans?

How effective are radon maps and what do they represent?

In many countries across the world, authorities have designed a wide variety of national radon maps that are used to illustrate radon priority areas. A recent paper published by Eric Petermann, Peter Bossew, and Bernd Hoffmann from BfS, Germany, questions the effectiveness of radon maps and whether they are having the desired impact on the public.

Choose the right radon sensor to optimize ventilation in workplaces and schools

In this article, we explain why it is important to choose the right radon sensor if you are looking to optimize ventilation in workplaces and schools. In properties with ventilation, radon levels can often vary and this is often dependent on whether the ventilation is running or not. Normally, radon levels are significantly lower when the ventilation is switched on. Depending on the design and eff

Using a detector to measure for radon continuously, what are the advantages?

When the analysis results of your radon measurement shows that the average concentration of one or more measurement points exceeds the reference threshold set by the regulations, it is necessary to take action to reduce radon levels below the threshold.
However, the radon concentration in the air is never constant. It evolves every minute. This is one of the reasons why it is recommended when p
