Radiation Monitoring of Products Exported from Japan
Increased radiation levels in Japan are impacting a wide range of businesses worldwide. It’s been widely reported that many of Japan’s key industries, including automobiles and electronics, are having trouble obtaining Japanese components needed to manufacture products. This includes foreign subsidiaries of Japanese companies that need to move products out of the country, and international companies that use Japanese components.
Increasingly, as supply lines open up, the need to monitor components and products leaving Japan may increase, driven by manufacturers interested in alleviating concerns of importers and to keep workers safe. At the same time, many companies that export from Japan may monitor incoming shipments to confirm its safety.
