On May 28, 2023, the Bosi Testing Team of Yuantai Derun Group once again reported good news! After years of hard work, the group company's laboratory has finally passed CNAS certification. From now on, Yuantai customers can enjoy the rigorous testing of steel pipe products by the national laboratory, which is also the "national level laboratory" in the steel trade population. We also have the ability to issue authoritative third-party reports for steel pipe products in engineering and projects, as well as important topics.
Why does Yuantai Derun need to obtain CNAS certification?
Many friends may be curious to know why Yuantai Derun needs to obtain CNAS certification? To clarify this issue, we need to first understand some information about CNAS
What is CNAS?
China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS) is a national accreditation institution approved and authorized by the Certification and Accreditation Administration of the People's Republic of China in accordance with the Certification and Accreditation Regulations of the People's Republic of China. It is responsible for the accreditation of certification institutions, laboratories, inspection institutions and other relevant institutions.
CNAS was formed by the merger of the former Chinese certification body, the National Accreditation Service (CNAB), and the former China National Accreditation Service for Laboratories (CNAL). CNAS evaluates and supervises the management and activities of conformity assessment agencies (such as certification agencies, laboratories, inspection agencies), confirms their ability to carry out corresponding conformity assessment activities (such as certification, testing and calibration, inspection, etc.), confirms the authority of their conformity assessment activities, and plays a recognized and binding role.
What is the role and significance of obtaining laboratory CNAS certification?
1. Prove that the laboratory has the technical ability to calibrate/test in accordance with relevant international standards
The laboratory has been recognized by CNAS, indicating that it has established a quality management system that meets international standards. As long as the laboratory strictly follows the quality management system, its technical capabilities can be guaranteed. Then, the testing/calibration services provided by the laboratory to customers can be claimed to comply with international standards.
2. Enhance the competitiveness of laboratories in the calibration/testing market and win the trust of government departments and all sectors of society
The products in the laboratory are test reports or calibration certificates. The quality of inspection reports or calibration certificates is related to the reputation and survival of the laboratory, and determines its competitiveness. ISO/IEC 17025 assists laboratories in planning, controlling, ensuring, and improving the quality of 'products' through various quality management activities to ensure the quality of' products' and services. For laboratory clients, choosing a laboratory with recognized technical capabilities can reduce the risk of providing substandard 'products'.
CNAS recognition can effectively improve the management level of the laboratory, ensure the fairness and effectiveness of the testing data issued by the laboratory, fully demonstrate the laboratory's testing and notarization capabilities, increase market share, and improve customer satisfaction.
3. Participate in bilateral and multilateral cooperation for international laboratory certification and gain wider recognition
Chinese certification agencies have signed mutual recognition agreements with APLAC and ILAC. The signing of this agreement has established a "highway" for China's laboratories to participate in international activities. Through CNAS accreditation, the laboratory can use this method to contact other signatories of the agreement, thereby gaining wider recognition. Through this approach, we can not only increase communication between the laboratory and international peers, but also leverage the advantages of mutual recognition to attract more laboratory customers and reduce costs.
4. Listed on the national laboratory accreditation list to enhance the laboratory's visibility
CNAS compiles and publishes the "Laboratory Certification Catalogue" every year, which is a combination of Chinese and English versions and can also be used by domestic laboratories, relevant machine rights, and foreign accreditation institutions. This will undoubtedly have a positive advertising effect on listed laboratories, thereby increasing the visibility of certified laboratories.
5. Approval marks can be used within the approved project scope
The certification mark refers to a graphical symbol issued by CNAS to an accredited laboratory, which is allowed to be used within a specified range to indicate that the accredited laboratory is eligible for CNAS certification. In order to protect the interests of the National Certification Bureau and certified laboratories, the National Certification Bureau has put forward strict requirements for the management of certification labels in accordance with relevant international requirements, and has stipulated corresponding measures to deal with fraud and abuse, including necessary litigation. Through these means, the legitimate rights and interests of CNAS and certified laboratories can be guaranteed, and it is also beneficial to reduce and reduce the infringement of the legitimate rights and interests of CNAS and certified laboratories.
The above is my opinion on CNAS certification, hoping to be helpful to everyone. At the same time, Yuantai Derun also welcomes buyers to come for consultation, inspection, and ordering.
