American Scale Corporation has obtained full ISO/IEC 17025 Accreditation to assure our customers of our technical validity and competence.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a worldwide federation comprised of representatives from national standards bodies in approximately 140 countries round the world. ISO’s mission is to promote international standards in quality practices and global exchange.

Today, ISO has two quality standards that can be applied to quality assurance in analytical data: ISO 9001 and ISO 17025. ISO 17025 is specifically focused on testing and calibration laboratories. The essence of such accreditation is to ensure validity of test data through technical competence and, in turn, demonstrate that the laboratory is adhering to an internationally recognized set of standards. To be ISO accredited, a facility must complete an independent assessment of its processes and performances.

American Scale Corporation can now offer tests/calibrations that are 17025 accredited within our scope.
