ILAC accreditation extends global status of AOCS Certified Reference Materials

For a certified reference material provider like AOCS, accreditation by a recognized body is essential. As one of two providers in the world for seed reference materials, AOCS has maintained its accreditation with the American Association of Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA) since the inception of AOCS' Certified Reference Material Program. This position was recently strengthened by the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC). 

This status extension indicates that AOCS' ISO 17034 accreditation meets both the A2LA's and ILAC's global criteria and, thus, is internationally recognized by another accreditation body. Learn more about this accreditation.
