The Cabinet of Ministers has declared the state-owned enterprise "Izotop" from Kyiv a strategic object for the economy and security of the state, said the head of the State Property Fund, Vitaliy Koval.
This decision opens up broad prospects for the development of the enterprise and encourages the expansion of its activities, according to representatives of the State Property Fund.
SE “Izotop” is a leading supplier of radioisotope products and ionizing radiation sources for medical and energy institutions in Ukraine. It is also engaged in the disposal of ionizing radiation sources.
Thanks to its many years of experience and qualified personnel, the company is considered an important asset for the country.
The next step in development will be to expand the company's range of activities. "Izotop" plans to produce radiopharmaceuticals.
The State Property Fund began the process of granting Isotope the status of a strategic enterprise back in January 2024.
“The new status will lead to an increase in Isotope's profits, the creation of new jobs, and greater revenue to the budget,” Koval emphasized.
SE “Izotop” was founded in 1962 and currently cooperates with companies from the USA, Canada and other countries. It also has experience in cooperation with the German government within the framework of the nuclear materials protection program. In July 2023, the company’s activities were inspected by the IAEA mission to support and assist in the safety of ionizing radiation sources in Ukraine.
