What does MKC EN ISO/IEC 17025 standard represent? 

МКC EN ISO/IEC 17025 is a standard intended to laboratories which scope of work is to perform testing and calibrations. The standard ensures quality of services to the clients and quality and precision of testing.

Why is it important to perform testing in accredited laboratories according to MKC EN ISO/IEC 17025 standard?

  • Domestic legislation in the field of environmental protection, obligates industrial installations to perform  testing in MKC EN ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories;
  • The laboratory experts are competent persons which undergo continuous training, quality control and evaluation;
  • The accredited laboratory uses highly sophisticated technical facilities that must be calibrated strictly in accredited calibration laboratories;
  • The accredited laboratory provides traceability of testing through the use of certified reference materials for control and adjustment of technical facilities;
  • The accredited laboratory participates in confirmation of competence, taking part in proficiency testing (PT) schemes organized from the accredited laboratories according to ISO/IEC 17043:2010 and  inter laboratory comparison between laboratories accredited according to МКC EN ISO/IEC 17025;
  • The testing results are associated with expanded uncertainty of measurement that is crucial for the results around the limit values stated in the legislation.
