In January 2024, U.S. military decided to upgrade its radiation detection gear by opting for a new product called “Radiological Detection System” manufactured by D-Tect Systems, which is a unit of Ludlum located in Utah. This system is modular and can be customized by using different external probes, such as alpha or neutron detectors, depending on specific detection requirements. This was an alternative to AN/PDR-77 and AN/VDR-2 which had been outdated detectors for radiation after 35 years of usage.
In December 2023, Thermo Fisher Scientific (TFS) signed an exclusive deal with RDC to offer NetDose, a digital dosimetry device, exclusively to North American customers in healthcare, dental and veterinary markets. Use of Bluetooth technology enables radiation monitoring via NetDose’s digital technology negating reshipments from the dosimeters each time they are processed in laboratories.
In December 2023, Radiation Detection Company (RDC), a provider of dosimetry solutions that enhance accessibility, affordability and ease-of-use of radiation safety services across healthcare, veterinary, dental, and industrial sectors, entered into a distribution agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific under which it will provide servicing support for the company’s NetDose digital dosimetry solution.
In October 2023: Honeywell launched FS24X Plus Flame Detector based on infrared technology; this is meant to prevent hydrogen flames from escalating into huge fires. It is a measure aimed at protecting workers and facilities susceptible to risks associated with hydrogen production and utilization. Rainy foggy or smoky flames can be detected by Honeywell’s FS24X Plus; put differently, infrared radiation refers to electromagnetic energy with greater wavelengths than visible light but shorter ones than radio waves that have proven their worthiness in information transmission purposes.
In June 2021,Mirion Technologies Inc., following merger with GS Acquisition Holdings Corp II sponsored by an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, announced that it would be a publicly traded company. A private investment in public equity (PIPE) of USD 900 million has been executed in order to facilitate this business combination and amongst the notable investors involved are Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC, BlackRock, Neuberger Berman funds and Janus Henderson Investors.
In May 2021, Radiation monitoring systems were introduced at Queen Alia and Amman Civil airports in Jordan. This is funded by the Canadian government which aims to enhance nuclear security capabilities in the Kingdom. The project received a budget of CAD 4.5 million as part of a bilateral agreement between our two governments while this agreement worth CAD 30 million was specifically designed to upgrade Jordan’s nuclear security infrastructure.
