2. INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION
Through the various mutual recognition arrangements between accreditation bodies, overseas markets will accept your company more readily if they know you have been certified by a ISO accredited certification body or accept your test results or inspections if you are an accredited laboratory or inspection body.

Accredited organizations reduce the risk of providing unreliable test results, services and products, and are able to meet the customers’ expectations.
