Accreditations & Credentials
Accreditations recognize a laboratory's competence to perform specific tests and are awarded to individual locations. Voluntary bodies accredit laboratories within their jurisdiction. Each body maintains mutual recognition agreements with other accreditation bodies to assist in serving the international community.
Where available, we have provided a web link to the accrediting body for more information. In some cases we have been able to link to a page outlining our specific scope. In the instances when multiple laboratories are accredited by the same body, the accreditation certificate or laboratory number is indicated.
