Nordic Isotope provides services for the licensing, safe handling, transport and disposal of radioactive material. Its offering includes transport of decommissioned radioactive sources by road and air as dangerous goods, radiation safety training, radiation safety expert (RSE) consulting and dangerous goods safety advisor (DGSA) services. It also runs a turnkey process for disused sources covering preliminary investigation, swab testing, transport and intermediate storage.
