The C.B.A. Chimica Biologia Ambiente Laboratory has entered into an agreement with ACCREDIA, under which the laboratory is granted accreditation for the required tests. This agreement is available for customers to review at the laboratory. ACCREDIA grants accreditation to a testing laboratory after verifying its technical and managerial competence in accordance with the requirements set forth in standard UNI CEI EN ISO/IEC 17025. Accreditation refers to the formal recognition that the laboratory complies with the system’s requirements for all testing activities, as well as its technical competence regarding the accredited tests. Accreditation does not diminish the responsibilities arising from contracts entered into between the testing laboratory and its clients. Although accreditation is an indication of the testing laboratory’s technical and managerial competence, it does not constitute a guarantee, issued by ACCREDIA, regarding the individual tests performed by the laboratory. Nor does it imply that ACCREDIA approves a test sample or a product. At least once a year, ACCREDIA verifies and certifies the laboratory’s compliance with the requirements for accreditation, authorizing the laboratory to cite such compliance—within the limits permitted by the applicable ACCREDIA documents—in test reports relating to accredited tests and in its own reports. | |
The ACCREDIA mark or any reference to accreditation must not be affixed to a test sample or a product (or part thereof) or used to imply product certification. The ACCREDIA mark or any reference to accreditation must not be used in a manner that creates the impression that ACCREDIA accepts responsibility for the test result, or for any opinion or interpretation that may arise from it, or that ACCREDIA endorses a test sample or a product. The mark or any reference to accreditation must not be used in documentation concerning a product, unless a copy of the test report is included. |
