What accreditation really means
Laboratory accreditation confirms that a testing laboratory works according to international standards – precisely, comprehensibly and objectively.
The standard DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 specifies the requirements for technical competence and quality management and thus creates confidence in the results.
How accreditation strengthens test reliability
Objectivity as a basis
Accredited laboratories work according to clearly defined procedures. All test processes are documented, validated and regularly checked – resulting in reproducible results that are recognized worldwide.
Traceability through standards
From sampling to the test report: every action follows a tested procedure. This transparency ensures the integrity of the data and protects customers, manufacturers and authorities alike.
The path to accreditation
Before a laboratory receives ISO 17025 accreditation, it undergoes extensive audits. Independent specialist bodies evaluate technical equipment, staff qualifications and quality management systems.
Regular inspections ensure that the requirements are permanently met.
