Partnerships
The irradiation industry is making steady progress in India and has seen growth over the past
few years. and thus, a few of us, entrepreneurs formed and registered the Irradiation
Industries Association of India (IIAI)
The association provides a common platform and support to the irradiation industry with the
objective of advancing the safe and beneficial use of Irradiation technology
The IIAI is also concerned about the manpower situation and put in utmost efforts to liaise
between the Industry and the Regulators. Apart from making representations before the AERB, and
others on common issues faced by the entrepreneurs, the stakeholders requested the RP&AD
authority to hold certification courses for both RPF-Operators and RPF-RSO categories.
However, the pandemic presented difficulties, and this could not be arranged. IIAI then
volunteered to hold virtual classes for the RS-Operators course and was given the authorisation
by the RP&AD. Thus, IIAI has started holding the Operators course from August 2021.
The IIAI took this to the next level and proposed RP&AD to organise the RSOs courses too. IIAI
has listed out potential faculty members from the industry and roped in Ex-DAE subject experts
for teaching purposes. The IIAI has successfully organised 1st RSO course in August 2022.
IIAI has been working for the benefit of the irradiation industry and inviting suggestions from
the industry for improving services and growth of Radiation Processing Technology across all
states in the country.
