36 years ago, on the April 26, 1986, an accident occurred at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It caused contamination of the environment , with radioactive isotopes of uranium, plutonium, iodine-131, cesium-134, cesium-137, strontium-90.
This tragedy is the one of the largest technological disasters of the 20th century and it will always remain in our memory. This accident sharply raised the issue of the lack of available radiation monitoring devices - dosimeters in the USSR were used only for scientific or military purposes - and pushed the talented engineer-inventor Alexander Antonovsky to create one of the world's first “household” miniature dosimeter, which has become widely used throughout the Soviet Union. The work on the development of dosimeters led Antonovsky and his team to found the company in 1992, which has been developing and implementing radiation monitoring devices all over the world for almost 30 years.
The liquidators of the Chernobyl disaster, including people close to Company, sacrificed their health in order to save hundreds of thousands of lives, working in severe conditions. We are proud of them and appreciate them for their courage and dedication.
