    Kromek lands US order to provide kit for detecting smuggling of radioactive substances

    County Durham’s Kromek has secured a £554,000 ($695,000) order to provide wearable radiation detection equipment to a customer in the US.

    The repeat order from a US federal organisation follows the awarding of a £1.2m ($1.6m) two-year contract in September 2021 and will help armed forces, border security and chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear experts to detect threats such as dirty bombs and radioactive contamination.
