'Gold Standard' Certified Reference Materials (CRMs)

Paragon Scientific has nearly 25 years’ experience in the production of Certified Reference Materials (CRM’s) and is recognised internationally as a world-leading producer, synonymous with quality, which is evidenced by the company’s dual accreditation status under the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) to International Standard ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO Guide 34.

With their dual accreditation, Paragon Scientific are able to produce CRMs that are certified in accordance with the requirements of both ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO Guide 34, which are commonly referred to as “Gold Standard” certified reference materials.

Paragon Scientific’s accreditations demonstrate their expertise and competency in their technical operations. A combination of advanced manufacturing techniques, state of the art laboratories, the use of primary laboratory test equipment and methodology, plus its acute attention to detail, enables them to produce products with some of the lowest levels of uncertainty of measurement available.

Whilst some reference material producers may have only recently made some improvements to the characterisation and certification of their product offering, Paragon has always sought to certify its products to the highest metrological level it can achieve, this has been one of its key objectives since the company was founded.

Integrity and Quality has and always will be at the forefront for Paragon Scientific, which is evidenced by their accreditations under UKAS and long-standing relationships with end-users and the worldwide partners they work with. Integrity and Quality are embedded across all their business activities and provides the framework in how they approach new ideas and operate.
