Wichita, KAN — BG Products is proud to announce that our research and development laboratory is now ISO/IEC 17025:2017 certified!
From the International Organization for Standardization (ISO):
ISO/IEC 17025 enables laboratories to demonstrate that they operate competently and generate valid results, thereby promoting confidence in their work both nationally and around the world.
According to ISO: This standard helps facilitate cooperation between laboratories and other bodies by generating wider acceptance of results between countries. This is crucial to BG as a global company because test reports and certificates can be accepted from one country to another without the need for further testing, which, in turn, improves international trade.
“We’ve always stood solidly behind our ability to administer proper testing procedures and present accurate data. This standard further proves that fact.”
