Press Release] Acquired ISO/IEC 17025:2017, the international standard for laboratory accreditation, to enhance food testing services.

We are pleased to announce that our food testing laboratory, which opened in 2020, has been accredited by Perigee Johnson Laboratory Accreditation Inc. (PJLA) as a "JIS Q 17025 ( ISO/IEC 17025:2017)" laboratory accreditation.

JIS Q 17025 (ISO/IEC 17025:2017)" is a standard that accredits the ability of testing and calibration laboratories to perform accurate measurement and calibration based on international standards by third-party accreditation bodies, where quality systems and technical capabilities are assessed. It is a global standard for judging the reliability of measurement and calibration results, and is internationally accepted through a multilateral mutual recognition arrangement. Certification documents issued by accredited laboratories and calibration laboratories can bear the accreditation mark, enhancing the reliability of quality.

We not only provide packaging materials, printing and processing of seals and paper containers, but also sales of hygienic products, HACCP support, food inspection services, hygiene patrols, seminars, etc. With the acquisition of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 laboratory accreditation, we will be able to conduct our own internationally accepted testing operations. The acquisition of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 laboratory accreditation will enable the company to conduct internationally accepted testing services.
