Importance of Laboratory Accreditation

Laboratory accreditation demonstrates competence, impartiality, performance capability and international acceptance

If you are responsible for ensuring your company’s product and service quality you will know that getting it right first time, every time, is paramount – and that the commercial and legal consequences of getting it wrong don’t bear thinking about.

Find out how Chemex can help you get it right. Here are four reasons why using the services of an accredited testing laboratory, like ours, can give you confidence that your information is accurate..

- You can minimise the risk of unreliable results.
- Because we use internationally recognised methods of testing you will have data which is accepted by pretty much any regulatory body, anywhere in the world.
-In the unlikely event of litigation, the use of an accredited laboratory is a powerful demonstration in court that you have exercised all due diligence in the selection and appointment of a laboratory.
-Using Chemex could save you money: unreliable results may lead to expensive re-testing.

At Chemex, our Quality Management System has been developed over 20 years to meet today's stringent requirements for Quality Assurance in analytical chemistry.

Our goal is to deliver an error-free product every time. Our independent QA department routinely inspects and audits our laboratory facilities, systems and procedures to ensure that Chemex operates in compliance with current regulations. Every single test report is thoroughly checked by QA staff for compliance with laboratory policies, AQC requirements and it is also checked for any possible errors or inconsistencies before being approved for release to the client.

The laboratory is continuously audited and inspected by both clients and regulatory bodies to ensure on-going compliance. These audits also provide opportunities for the sharing of ideas and solutions to any issues, which may arise.
