UKAS Accredited for Pipette Calibration since 1998

The United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) is the sole accreditation body recognised by government to assess, against internationally recognised standards, laboratories that provide test and calibration services. UKAS combines a depth of technical knowledge and expertise built up over many years with scientific and technical specialists operating across the entire test and calibration spectrum, from forensics to food safety. Accreditation by UKAS demonstrates the competence, impartiality and performance capability of laboratories.

UKAS Accredited laboratories have:

• Competent and Trained Staff
• Properly Maintained and Calibrated Instruments
• Internal and External Quality Control
• International Recognition

   

Anachem has been UKAS accredited for pipette calibration since 1998. This means that we can provide our clients with an assurance of our laboratory procedures and the validity and quality of our results.

• Test work will be conducted by valid, recognised, technical methods suitable for the purpose required and of established performance characteristics
• The work will be performed by properly qualified and trained staff
• The work will be carried out on equipment which is functioning properly and which is calibrated so as to provide traceability to international standards of measurement
• Data will be subject to quality control, both from the point of view of accuracy & precision, by means which have been approved by independent technical assessors. Because the Anachem pipette service operation operates to these standards you always benefit from these advantages. The same certified equipment, trained personnel and procedures are used whether you use the full UKAS service level and certification or one of our regular service options.

   

  Whether your own laboratory is UKAS accredited or not, by using Anachem for your pipette service you minimise risk. It’s one less thing to worry about.

Quality Standards

The internationally recognised standard for the competence of laboratories is ISO/IEC17025 and is the standard against which UKAS accredits laboratories. It contains all the requirements that testing and calibration organisations must meet to demonstrate that they operate a quality system, are technically competent and are able to generate technically valid results. ISO/IEC17025 is the only standard to address all of these issues. Laboratories accredited to this standard are able to provide their clients with a measurable level of assurance.

Only a laboratory that has been accredited by UKAS to ISO17025 is permitted to display the Royal Crown Mark that you should look for as positive proof of competency. It allows you to make an informed choice. It enables you to make a better choice.
