Proud to Announce Additional Accreditation Bird Dog Marketing Group is now accredited to perform USP 671 testing for the functional properties of packaging systems used for pharmaceuticals and dietary supplements.
Why Accreditation Matters Global trade is now the norm and requires accreditation that ensures accurate and efficient testing standards. In the last 50 years, pharmaceutical and packaging companies have increasingly worked together nationally and globally to develop packages that meet child-resistant package standards. It is now a global marketplace requiring accreditation as a way to demonstrate our ability to supply trusted and consistent results internationally where test results and certificates can confidently be accepted from one country to another without requiring additional testing.
As an industry leader in child-resistant package testing, Bird Dog Marketing Group has embraced the accreditation process and we are an ANAB Accredited ISO/IEC 17025 Testing Laboratory. This accomplishment emphasizes our commitment to our global partners to ensure the highest quality testing in the child-resistant package industry.
Accreditation is a voluntary, third party-reviewed process. As part of the certification, a laboratory's quality management system is thoroughly evaluated regularly to ensure continued technical competence and compliance with ISO/IEC 17025. An accreditation body or AB can only grant laboratory accreditation. Although there are several accreditation bodies in the US, customers should choose calibration and testing laboratories accredited by ABs having an MRA with ILAC.
What is ISO/IEC 17025?
ISO/IEC 17025 was first issued in 1999 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It is the single most important standard for calibration and testing laboratories around the world. Laboratories meeting this international standard have demonstrated that they are technically competent and able to produce precise and accurate test and/or calibration data.
