One of the most prestigious accreditations to our name, we became one of only five UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service)-accredited acoustic calibration labs in 2018. As a UKAS-accredited calibration laboratory, we are capable of calibrating sound level meters and acoustic calibrators to the very latest and highest standards, as well as octave band filters. UKAS standards are internationally recognised, as demonstrated by our association with ILAC (International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation). ILAC is an internationally-recognised organisation for accreditation bodies. Having the ability to calibrate acoustic instruments to UKAS-accredited standards is incredibly important, as it demonstrates our commitment to quality. Becoming a UKAS-accredited calibration lab is no mean feat; any institution that wishes to become accredited must undergo a thorough verification process. We have our own designated UKAS calibration lab and all the testing equipment used in the lab has been thoroughly checked by the UK Accreditation Service.
