Accreditation of the Gilson Pipette Calibration Laboratories

Many countries around the world have one or more organizations responsible for the accreditation of their nation’s laboratories. Most of these accreditation bodies have now adopted an international guide, called ISO 17025:2017.

The ISO 17025:2017 contains “all the requirements that testing and calibration laboratories have to meet if they wish to demonstrate that they operate a quality system, are technically competent, and are able to generate technically valid results.”

Accreditation by COFRAC ensures that the Gilson pipette calibration laboratory in France respects the ISO 17025 management and technical requirements and applies the ISO 8655 for pipette calibration by using the gravimetric method.

The calibration laboratory in France is considered an independent metrological laboratory. It is allowed to issue calibration certificates for pipettes with the COFRAC logo. The COFRAC logo proves that the measurements are linked to the International System Units.

• Standardized ISO 8655-6 3 x 10 measurements method without changing tips.
