Conference on the Future of Lake Neusiedel
At the discussion event (YouTube-Link) “Lake Neusiedl – a Region in Transition” the expert opinion of our managing director Mag. Dr. Georg Wolfram was asked.
With high demands on quality and accuracy of the analytical results, we have established a quality management system for our chemical testing laboratory according to the guidelines of ÖVE/ÖNORM EN ISO/IEC 17025. In September 2010, the laboratory was accredited as a testing laboratory by the Federal Ministry of Economics, Family and Youth (BMWFJ):
BMWFJ-92.714/0659-I/12/2010 Identification No. [PSID] 315.
Our analyses are carried out in accordance with national and international standards (see scope of accreditation). The correctness of our work is regularly monitored by auditors of Accreditation Austria and confirmed several times a year by international interlaboratory comparisons.
