On February 27th, 2002, the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) accredited Accurassay Laboratories for Gold, Platinum, Palladium, Copper, Nickel, and Cobalt under ISO/IEC Guideline 17025 (see specific scopes under Accreditation), one of the first laboratories in Canada to be so accredited. Accurassay voluntarily participated in this internationally recognized accreditation program to improve our quality systems and to give our customers the assurance of an independent, third party validation of our abilities.

 

Accreditation covers virtually all aspects of our assay laboratory practices including our standard operating procedures (SOP’s), our quality control and quality assurance methods and requires successful participation in the PTP-MAL performance testing program.  Successful participation means being able to process submitted certified reference material with proper precision and accuracy on a regular (minimum annually) basis.

 

At Accurassay, we believe in the value that accreditation offers to our customers and continue to expand our scopes as appropriate.
