Radiometric Control: Safety and Compliance with FRANZOSINI SA

Radiometric inspection at customs is a fundamental measure to ensure public and environmental safety, especially for the transit of metallic materials such as scrap, waste and semi-finished products. FRANZOSINI SA, with more than 30 years of experience, performs these operations with the support of qualified second- and third-degree experts in radiation protection, following the regulations of D. Lgs. 100/2011 and the UNI 10897 Standard of 2016, which regulate the detection of radionuclides through X and gamma measurements.

Radiometric control management procedures, developed in collaboration with radiation protection experts, include strict operating protocols to ensure materials compliance and the issuance of the IRME 90 Radiometric Surveillance Certificate. This document, essential for metallic goods, certifies the absence of radioactive contamination and is issued only after a complete physical inspection. The use of advanced instrumentation, periodically calibrated at accredited laboratories, makes it possible to detect any trace of radioactivity. Before each use, the instruments are tested to ensure their full efficiency.

Radiometric measurements are carried out by our technical staff, who are trained and educated to perform the verifications according to stringent safety standards. Qualified experts oversee the entire process, performing additional measurements in case of anomalies and handling situations that require the isolation or recovery of radioactive materials. Through a combination of state-of-the-art technology and highly trained personnel, each inspection is performed quickly and efficiently, minimizing the impact on customs transit time.

FRANZOSINI SA’s radiometric management system is designed not only to comply with regulations, but to maintain fast and safe operational flows. Qualified experts conduct periodic inspections, verifying that each operation is carried out in accordance with procedures, and ensure that each step is optimized to minimize the risk of radioactive contamination. This approach, the result of years of experience and an impeccable organization, allows FRANZOSINI SA to guarantee high standards of quality and reliability, even in the face of increasingly stringent regulations.

Through constant communication between the control team and the relevant authorities, we are able to prevent any radiometric risk, ensuring that all shipments meet safety requirements without compromising the smooth flow of trade.
