March 19, 2012 By Steven Perez

The food industry is no stranger to risk management. In the battle for consumer dollars, product recalls caused by contamination or adulteration can be catastrophic. Business, legal and moral repercussions resulting from lapses in food safety and quality are top-of-mind issues for all manufacturers. Significant resources are dedicated to minimizing these risks, generally through a variety of industry (and additionally, manufacturer- or retailer-specific) quality assurance (QA) systems.

ISO/IEC 17025 ACCREDITED

ISO/IEC 17025 is a company level accreditation based on a standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) titled “General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”. ISO/IEC 17025 is a general umbrella term used to refer to the specific standard; the current version of this standard is ISO/IEC 17025:2017. The standard contains two main sections: management requirements (primarily related to the operation and effectiveness of the quality management system within the laboratory) and technical requirements (primarily related to the competence of staff and calibration of equipment). The standard also gives requirements related to quality management such as document control and corrective action. This standard is the basis for accreditation from an accrediting body.

ADPEN has also been inspected by the US-EPA and US-FDA multiple times with no observations.
