Laboratory accreditation can only be granted by an accreditation body. Achieving ISO 17025 certification provides further value-added competency with a high level of assurances in the reliability and accuracy of the test results provided. This certification, in turn, enhances global reputation.
Accreditation can take up to 24 months approximately to achieve, ensuring the competence and proficiency of the facility for the testing procedures are ongoing for long term commitment essential to upholding the standard.
SATEC’s achievement in obtaining ISO 17025 provides further confidence with their metering product solutions. SATEC Australia’s limited warranty being extended from 3 years to 5 years from shipment effective January 2017 for products sold in Australia and New Zealand is testament to this.
