The UN Food and Agricultural Organization is deeply concerned by the fact that one third of the world's annual food production is wasted... and many developing countries do not have the basic necessities for food production... FAO Resolution 2.1

Implementation of food treatment technologies contributes to food security programs worldwide and is essential for product quality assurance.

Food irradiation has a number of benefits, such as sprouting inhibition, slower ripening, it stops activity of insects, their larvae and all types of pathogens. This ensures food safety and increases its shelf life. For details, please refer to IAEA Safety Standards

BEAMCOMPLEX
Beamcomplex, a research and manufacturing company, operates in the field of nuclear physics, develops new food safety programmes based on radiation technologies using ionizing radiation (X-Ray and E-beam) for phytosanitary treatment of food products and builds complexes to implement these technologies.

Within the framework of state food security programs, Beamcomplex performs a comprehensive assessment of the efficiency of existing technological processes and logistical capabilities of assets contributing to the preservation of crops, as well as imported products in order to determine the location for complexes with electron accelerators.

Beamcomplex develops and executes food security programs using accelerated electron treatment technology for agricultural and food products to increase shelf life and ensure quality assurance. The company deploys complexes and launches production of food products with high shelf life to replenish the reserve stock of food products.
OUR MISSION
IMPLEMENTATION OF TECHNOLOGIES FOR BUILDING A BALANCED FOOD SECURITY SYSTEM FOR ALL PEOPLE IN THE WORLD.
RADIATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR FOOD SECURITY PROGRAMMES

The radiation technologies are adapted for phytosanitary treatment of food and agricultural products to improve food safety, extend product shelf life, etc.
