Radiation protection consultancy
Does your company use X-ray equipment or radioactive sources? Are you comfortable with legal compliance? Do you want to give your employees and the environment the best radiation protection? Do you want your employees to work responsibly and safely with radiation so your business can concentrate on its core activities?
Radiation regulations are strict and avoiding unnecessary radiation exposure for employees, patients and the public is a must. Companies, especially newcomers on the market, working with X-ray devices or radioactive sources are quite often at a loss how to become and how to comply conveniently with regulations within budgetary constraints.
In the coming period there will be major changes in the radiation legislation and the challenge for companies on how to stay informed about these changes and how to implement these new regulations in their business.

Your benefit from radiation protection consultancy
According to Dutch legislation every organization using ionizing radiation should have a registered radiation protection expert. For clinics there is an extra requirement to have a medical physics expert on board.
Unfortunately for some companies and clinics, it is often difficult to fulfill these requirements. Our consultancy team has many years of experience in tackling these challenges. Our experienced radiation protection team supports industrial companies, hospitals and clinics with all aspects necessary to be compliant with Dutch legislation.
“We help you to be compliant, while you can focus on your business”
You and your workers can feel assured and secured, so your employees can work responsibly and safely with radiation.
