Achieves ISO/IEC17025 Accreditation, an International Laboratory Accreditation Standard
The First Accreditation for Simultaneous Analysis
Method of Cd, Cr and Pb in Plastic
|
|
SII NanoTechnology Inc., received accreditation from
the Japan Accreditation Board for Conformity Assessment
(JAB) for its Makuhari laboratory on September 29, 2004,
and is fully compliant with ISO/IEC17015*1, the international
laboratory accreditation standard.
SII NanoTechnology was certified for its proprietary
in house standards and test methods entitled gTest Methods
for Heavy Metal Concentration in Plastic by ICP Optical
Emission Spectrometry.h It is now able to provide analytical
valuations related to the content of cadmium (Cd), lead
(Pb) and chrome (Cr) in plastic (polyvinyl chloride
and polyethylene) compliant with international standards.
As a result, SII NanoTechnology now ensures the traceability*2
of analytical valuations provided by its laboratory,
but also offers a gOne-Stop-Testing,g in which the results
of an implemented test are internationally accepted
without the need for re-inspection.
