Welcome message from BGS
BGS Beta-Gamma-Service is honored to be the Regional Sponsor of IMRP 2027 together with IBA. We are delighted to support this key international forum as the global irradiation community meets in Düsseldorf under the theme “A New Age for Irradiation.”
Europe is one of the world’s leading clusters for irradiation technology, and BGS is proud to be part of this unique environment. As one of the pioneers in the practical application of industrial irradiation, we have made important contribution to the development of this industry over many decades. We see IMRP 2027 as a valuable platform to exchange ideas, strengthen partnerships, and explore how irradiation can continue to address global challenges.
For us, this includes not only radiation sterilization, which remains essential for the safety and availability of life sciences products, but also radiation crosslinking, an application field that continues to offer strong potential for innovation in materials and industrial performance.
We look forward to welcoming experts, partners and innovators from around the world to Düsseldorf and to contributing to the dialogue that will shape “A New Age for Irradiation.”
Awards at IMRP 2027
At IMRP 2027, we will present two Laureate Awards (Scientific and Business) honoring those who make outstanding contributions to radiation processing.
Additionally, following its successful debut at the last IMRP, we’re excited to present the Early Career Professional Awards again at IMRP 2027. These awards celebrate emerging talent in the irradiation industry.
Please start to consider potential nominees for these awards.
NOMINATIONS OPEN: 1st June 2026
