In order to demonstrate our commitment to quality Absolute Calibration has the following Accreditation and Certifications.
BS EN ISO 17025 Audited by UKAS
These standards ensure the customer that we have both the management systems and technical capability to conduct calibrations.
Our accreditation to ISO17025 ensures that all test equipment used to calibrate customer equipment is traceable to the primary or national standard for that unit of measurement. ISO17025 defines the requirement for accredited companies to have an 'unbroken chain of calibrations or comparisons linking them to relevant primary standards of the SI unit of measurement'. The standard also requires that procedures are in place defining methods, measurement uncertainties, equipment and the skills required to conduct calibrations. Without ISO17025 calibration companies are not able to issue UKAS calibration certificates containing the royal crown mark.
European co-operation for Accreditation
EA’s members are officially recognised by their national Governments to assess and verify Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs). CABs are organisations that carry out evaluation services such as certification, verification, inspection, testing and calibration. EA is responsible for harmonising accreditation within Europe, aiming to reduce trade barriers and protect health, safety and the environment.
