The project will include both hardware and software related to X-ray imaging, hardware materials and overall engineering design for radiation safety, X-ray imaging systems, radiation monitoring systems and mobile transportable systems for Container Inspection Systems at seaports. The Korean government plan to install and operate over 30 sets of Container Inspection Systems with a value of $300,000,000 (three hundred million dollars) by 2030. With RadTek's designs and equipment being set as the standard for these initial projects the company hopes to be a key partner with their equipment as the standard in future installations with the Korean government and other partners in the customs service.
