Projectdetails

Introduction

Indoor radon is the 2nd most frequent source of lung cancer, causing each year over 290,000 deaths worldwide. As a naturally occurring radioactive gas, it diffuses from the ground into buildings and accumulates inside. It can't be seen, smelled, or tasted.

Problem Statement

In the EU, over 34,000,000 buildings, mostly homes, are affected by increased radon levels and have a need for monitoring and mitigation.

Solution

A compact, affordable, smart radon sensor is central to serve that need. Our AlphaSensor is:

  • 65% smaller
  • 60% cheaper than any other sensor
  • Fast, precise, and very robust

It's designed to be produced in large quantities at low costs and has interfaces for easy integration into air quality devices and smart building control systems.

Market Interest

Several manufacturers of high-volume applications have expressed interest in AlphaSensor. Serving them with our unique sensor will boost our company growth considerably.

Team Commitment

Relying on a motivated team of skilled business experts, we make protection from radon available to everyone!
